Introduction

Here, as elsewhere
to the question, what
has the reader to expect
from this work answer
can not be too soon given

On the occasion of this, as of every other work what is
it that the reader has to expect from it is a question the
answer to which can not be given at too early a period
of it

7
Now the point of
view in which the subject
is here presented

The ponnt point of view on which the subject is here presented
is one of which are such there has not ever hitherto (it is believed)
been an example.

8
Value is conduciveness
to happiness —
capacity of being
applied to the augmentation
of happiness

Be the work what it may the supposed quantity
or say degree of its conduciveness to happiness is called
its value. By the word value is meant capacity of being
applied to that is to say to the augmentation of happiness

9
Value is directly
as the positive good
or say pleasure produced,
inversely as
the positive evil averted.

The Value is in the direct ratio of the [positive]
good or say pleasure produced by it, and in the inverse ratio of the
positive evil or say pain averted by it

10
Of Mathematics,
branches two.
1. Unapplied to use:
commonly called pure
2. Applied to use:
commonly called mixt
By unapplied is not
meant unapplicable

Mathematics is customarily distinguished and divided
into two branches: the one called pure mathematics
the other mixt mathematics. Applied to use, unapplied
to use applied to use, these are the denominations
which on this occasion are employed in preference.
Note that By unapplied is not here meant unapplicable

11
Subject of this work
Mathematics unapplied

That branch in the treating of which the use is alone
defined is not taken into consideration is the one which
constitutes the subject matter of this present work.

12
As to what is unapplicable
one means
of facilitation here recommended
is — do not
meddle with it.

As to whatsoever portion of the matter is inapplicable
to use, one of the means of facilitation recommended
is the not meddling with it — suffering it to die
in silence. Let it alone.

Barren all that is thus circumstanced may be status
and a condition sine qua non to the admission of any mathematical
proposition will be the shewing it to admitt production: exhibition
of an instance in which application is actually made of a
specific use either in pure mathematics or in mixt mathematics directly immediately, or
interventionally — by the
intervention of other proposition belonging thus to pure mathematics.
