Punishment analysed into various possible Modes.

Having fixed this idea of punishment in general, and
shown how to distinguish it from the several objects with which it
was liable to be confounded, we now come to give a view of the
several possible modes or kinds into which it may itself be
distinguished.

Punishment is Evil. Evil is either Pain or loss of Pleasure.
We may even narrow the idea of punishment and confine
the import of the word punishment within the import of the
word Pain; since mere loss of pleasure unaccompanied with
actual pain could never answer any end that was ever proposed
by Punishment. Punishment then is Pain: but Pain
itself is either of that sort which springs up originally or of
that which is grounded on the loss of pleasure. This consideration
one should think at first sight and upon viewing
the subject a priori should furnish a natural distribution
for the several kinds of punishment. Of Punishments
then one should expect, these should be as many kinds exactly
and the same kinds, as these are of original Pains that can
be
