Ch. Classification

Arguments addressed
to 1. the affection
2. the imagination
3. the judgment —
for prominence
these denominations
stand not in need of
latin: — at least
for conception

The affections — the imagination — the judgment —
these departments of the mind had been sufficiently
marked out characterized distinguished, and by their very names and were sufficiently well known to exempt
them from the need of looking receiving for other more
convenient appellations to a dead and foreign language.
This at least it would have been stood would have been the case with them
if mere conception conveyance of the ideas in question communication had been the object.

But the class ad
affectus requiring from
its extent ulterior
division, the above
divisions suffice not
thence for retentive
thought but upon the
whole to put all into
the dead yet sufficiently
familiar language
from the charge of
affectation the
set of appellations
thus formed stand
exculpated by Locke.
But besides that by in the instance of the term affections the affections
the class marked out by it was so extensive, as to
stand in need of ulterior division, so it was that
for retention on the part of the idea, and thence for
prominence on the part of the denomination appellation, the
a still demand still seemed to present itself for the
use of the dead but nevertheless still generally sufficiently familiar language
still seemed to present itself.] and the example of
Locke sufficed at any rate to exempt protect the whole
tribe of appellations formed upon this principle from
every such charge as that of affectation and or useless
pedantry.
16(a)
Translated into English
these Latin appellations
would be found too long-winded
to be serviceable.
