Logic or Ethics
In some of its shapes it is the both that pleasure has
its seat, in others it is in the mind: where is the
man to whom any either part of this is an unknown secret? where
is the man to whom experience of any part of it has
been wanting? That which is known to every man
can it have been unknown to those philosophers.
Be this as it may, speaking of bodily pleasures
having thus stated the subject of bodily pleasures, be the impression taken this occasion to assure us that no such
thing as the Summum bonum is to be found in it. Why
not to be found there? because it exists not any where?
Oh no: but for very quite different are the reasons.
1. In the first place the part of the human
frame to which they are rendered subservient one should rather he might have
said have whether the which are subservient to them
is the more or less noble but mostly the more ignoble.
2. In the next place they are short.
3. In the third place, when they are over, they are
apt to be and thus of the unsavoury kind, and in that
case they are succeeded by blushes.
3. In the third place, /every one and thing / here and there / when they are over in some instances the recollection of them is (it seems) unsavoury, whereupon and thereupon come
or ought to come certain blushes.
