Why is the jail so old and every thing else is portrayed as new? Every society has a prison and a cemetery in it.
"the founders of a new colony whatever utopia of human virtue and happiness they might originally project have invariably recognized it among their earliest practical necessities to allot a portion of the virgin soil as a cemetery and another portion as a sit of a prison." What they are saying is now mater how new your society is there well all was be a cemetery and a jail that well look old because they have been around for so long in every society.  That is saying that now one can make the perfect society because there is in human nature to be bad. If you always have bad people then you can never have a utopia.

  1. Jail and cemetery about important to society because people always die and there is always people who do "bad" things. Does this introduce good vs. evil?
