Logic or Ethics Ch Summum bonum

2 § Vulgarists

Put at the commencement. no. of th
exposure, to you a sample of the spell of false and much
rowing with which the Oxford youth are intent to be demented.

Objection the first — slipperiness and unsteadiness: or in
plain English, (when) (the rhetorical varnish (is) stript off,)
(it is) liable to be lost. But the question is not what it
is worth not to him who has it not, but to him who has it?
And, as is well observed by Adam Smith, for
in England at least, being the country in which this Tutor
wrote, and in the 18th century, being the Century in which the and of
this compined was published, for one man who has lost
what he had, you hear a good thousand who have not only
kept it, but made additions added to it.

Objection the 2d. Not for its own sake does a man
wish want for it, but to get some thing this or that and that and t'other in exchange
for it. — Well but if he gets for it what he wants
whatsoever it is that he happens to want, if he gets for
it what he wants, in what respect is it the less valuable.
Suppose a man to have When you have what he wants, what
more would he have? And if he has not the summum
bonum itself has he not a something else, which is as
good as ever that could can be?

Travelling on blindfold with closed eyes in the track of common place
whatsoever was the on the subject in question was the language
of former the earliest times, man continues to employ it, regardless heedless
of the change that has changes that have taken place in the state of
of things which it was then employed to represent. In the heart of Greece
in Athens, where Aristotle wrote, land was at two years
purchase: in England it is now at thirty years.

Hume, from
Xenophon

In Judea, at the time when the biographers of Jesus
wrote, moth and ju were mentioned as causes of impoverishment, rust were in the character of corruptors general
and assuredly not without reason: not without reason then
no nor yet at present. But neither moth nor rust corrupt gold,
no nor yet the paper which is the represents it. From the moth no one
at
at this time of day has
any serious loss to fear
unless it be a woollen-draper;
nor from rust
unless it be a hardware
man whose goods be/lie upon
his hands.
