1831. Jan. 6.

Deontology Private.

Envy & jealousy are neither virtues nor
vices.

They are pains.

Envy is pain derived from the contemplation
of pleasure regarded by me as being derived
by another fromyou from a source from which it
was my wish more especially if it was
also my expectation to derive good in a
shape in which the good obtained by you
would prevent my being in possession of.

Jealousy is pain of apprehension derived
from the same cause as that from which
it is derived in the case of envy.

Prudence - self-regarding and extra-regarding -
join in prescribing the repressing as much
as possible the disposition to be affected
by those same pains : effective benevolence-
positive &negative-(ql. negative)-
join in prohibiting all maleficent actions
liable to be produced by the
desire of alleviation from those
same pains.

The disposition without the action is indeed not
a vice but it is an infirmity.
