The expression ambiguous. 1. The greatest good? then others should not be passed

§. Summum bonum. solemn nonsense one of the drivellers of the Philosophers of antiquity.
What well-being is has been seen: the balance between
thing in the instance of the individual in question, for and
during the length portion of time in question, the what balance there
has been, if any on the side of pleasure
