Logic or Ethics Ch Object

8 Virtue what

Unfortunately the further he proceeds travels, the thicker is the
dust which with in which by his footsteps the subject has
been involved. Given for exhaustion, his division of appetite
into concupiscible and irascible — or the phrase is it
should (concupiscition and iration it should rather
have been) is no such thing: and at this stage the
imperfection of it stares a man reader in the face. Sub
jection one's self to pain — to bodily pain for
example is not that what he means in among those things
which he means by toleration, by tolerance? Yes:
if he himself is to be believed, that it is. "Semivirtutes
"circa Dolores, ut Tolerantia. +

+ p. 70

Tolerantia (thereupon continues he a little further on)
"ut virtus

The irascible appetite is that appetite of
which in consequence of anger or ill will in any other
shape which takes for its object pains the suffering of
some person who in another sense is the object of it:
insomuch that by if not in so far as in the breast
of that person pain evil at large is produced, at any rate in
so far as to the production of it in that same breast
the person in question — the angry person is instrumental,
the appetite receives its gratification

But in the case here in question, the breast which is the seat of the pain in question
is not the breast of the any person with whom he the man of tolerance is is angry, but his own breast: and in short as for anger
it forms not any part of the
case.
