Deontology Private

Negative beneficence then consists in the forbearer is exercised in so far as annoyance
in any shape is forborne to be inflicted on others. Negative beneficence is
forbearance of annoyance. By acts of this description no
direct contribution it is true can be said to be made to the Good
will fund abovementioned. But Thus on the other hand correspondent to that same
Good will fund there is an Ill-will fund: and by every
act of exercise of Negative Beneficence the Ill-will fund is kept from
receiving contribution contribution to the amount of value it
would otherwise have received. In an indirect way, the
withdrawing in this way contribution from the Ill-will fund
may have the effect be productive of an effect equivalent
to that produced by a contribution to the Good-will fund.
For if while malevolence is keeps filling his Ill-will fund
Benevolence keeps his empty, it is manifest what the advantage
will be, which, in a case when a service they are rival
candidates for a certain service which may be rendered to either
and must be rendered to either of them, benevolence will to be have
in the engagement of on his side.
