Supposed un-apply-able, per
J. B. useless to learner, possessor,
teacher.

Supposing it unsusceptible of any such application, or supposing
it to remain unapplied the notion which given back in these pages
is that this same branch of art and science is plainly useless: useless
to him who undertakes to learn it, to him who possesses it , to him
who undertakes to teach it

8.
When applied. very useful.

That on the other hand when applied to any one of the
several branches of art and science to which it is wont to be applied
it is of very considerable use

9
Only because useful is it
worth while to facilitate
its acquisition.

It is on this account and this alone — that it is worth
while to make the acquisition of it easy: supposing it useless
any time and labor expended in to rendering the acquisition of it easy would be
expended in waste: proof of the uselessness of it would be the proper
subject matter of the expenditure.

10.
Of its facilitation, only use
to increase happiness produce benefit.

Of its being made easy the only use and purpose is — its
being made beneficial productive of benefit: causing the possessor of it make addition to
the aggregate mass of happiness

11.
Magnitude of benefit in
proportion to the aggregate net
happiness produced by it.

Of This benefit the magnitude will be in proportion to
the quantity of h net happiness for it by each of the
several persons in question, multiplied by the number of those
same persons

12
In each case, benefit in
inverse ratio of time
& labor expended.

In the case of each such . (the application made of it
as above being out of the question, the benefit will be in the inverse
ratio of the quantity of time and labor expended in the acquisition
of it.

13.
Per J. B. there it may be
learnt at much less expense
of time & labor — to show
this method the object of
this work.

In the c of the author of these pages, a method
there is, by means of which the same quantity of this same benefit
might be acquired and confirmed at the expense of a much less
quantity of time and labor than the at the expense of which it
has as yet been acquired by any person: of to this method it is the object
the purpose — the of this work [to give expression] —[to delineate]
to give indication.
