Compensation

Distinct Distinguishable from the business of Punishment, but intimately
Compensation what connected with it is another which offences give occasion for,
I mean that of Compensation. The idea of compensation
supposes that of Damage. Damage is only
another word for Pain or what is equivalent to it
loss of Pleasure, considered in a particular point of
view. To make a man Compensation [a] for a Damage,
is to give him so much pleasure as will weigh
against, [that is be equivalent to], the pain he will have
sustained in consequence of his having sustained the damage.

This it is evident is a distinct
that of Punishment.</p>

The compensation may be stiled adequate when
Compensation adequate x inadequate
the pleasure [above spoken of] is equal to the pain: inadequate when less.


NOTE

[a] From com with and penso to weigh.
[b] There are many phrases synonymous to this: to make
a man satisfaction, to make him amends, to make it
up to him, to give him an equivalent, and many several others.
