10 How to measure

It may apply to one kind of pleasure or pain as well as to another bottle of wine claret with it for my own drinking, or
lay it out in providing sustenance for a family
I see about to perish for want of my assistance,
so much the worse for me at the long run: but
it is plain that so long as I continued hesitating
the two pleasures of sensuality in the one
case, of sympathy in the other were exactly
worth to me five shillings: to me they were exactly
equal.

Apology for applying it to refined pleasures. I beg a truce here of our men of sentiment
and feeling: which from necessity and it is only
from necessity, I speak and teach prompt mankind to
speak a mercenary language. The Barometer Thermo-
is the instrument for measuring the pressure heat
of the Air weather: the Thermometer Barometer the instrument
for measuring the pressure of the Air.
Those who are not satisfied with the accuracy of
these instruments must find out others that shall
be more accurate, or bid advice to Natural Philosophy.
Money is the instrument for measuring
the the quantity of pain or pleasure.
Those who are not satisfied with the accuracy
of this instrument must find out some other
that shall be more accurate, or bid adieu to
Politics and Morals.
