§.1. Proper mode
Of what presents that which has presented itself as the proper office of the deontologist
an intimation indication has been already given: in
itself it is no better than neither more nor less than
that of a Scout: a man who having put himself
upon the hunt for consequences — for such consequences of a particular
kind as are apt have been found to result from a particular
species of cause, collects them as he can, and lays
them for the use of whoever those whom it may happen feels himself feel themselves
disposed to profit by accept of his services, lays them out before spreads them out in
their eyes their view.
In this mode of executing the office, how much
there is of labour, how little of self-assured importance,
will be sufficiently evident seems manifest enough let any man judge.
