1827. March 7.

Constitutional Code Deontology Ch.

1

§.

Virtue is an appellative by which a fictitious
entity is wont to be designated. The entity signified
by it having no superior genus, the term
is not susceptible of what is commonly meant
by a definition: viz. indication given of a generic
appellative, within the import of which that of
the term defined is comprehended, together with
an indication of some property, by which the thing object
so indicated, is distinguished from all other
things designated by the same generic appellative.

Thus it is, that in a direct way, it is
of by itself incapable of being defined or so much as in any
other way expounded.

But in a direct way through the
medium of this or that conjugate belonging to
the same root, it is capable of being expounded.

A virtuous act, a virtuous habit,
a virtuous disposition — in these several ways —
by means of these several locutions it's conjugate
virtuous is susceptible of being expounded and
by means of it a tolerably determinate and correct
conception of it may be indicated by it.
