than that of Anger. The former motive in a greater or less degree reigns in all men's bosoms. The object of desire is wealth in general, the universal instrument of all sorts of pleasures: wealth, wheresoever it may be found: wealth by which more soever it is possessed. There is no time at which
any man would not be glad to add to the sum

to entertain such a propensity no particular incident
is necessary. But the motive of Anger
reigns not at all times in the breast of the most

to another, some particular incident must
have happend. But it is not in every case where
a man has occasioned displeasure to another that
the pain of the former becomes an object of desire
to the latter: and where it has supposing it to have become so,
there is hardly that a man alive in to whom it
will continue so without interruption and without
end.
