Punishment analysed into its various possible Modes.

be suffered or of pleasures that can be lost.

This plan of distribution however we shall soon find,
cannot be pursued. The reason is as follows. The objects that
claim our examination in a treatise on punishments are not so
much the several sorts of pains themselves as the several sorts
of acts whereby pains may be produced. For it is in order to
direct the choice of those acts that the subject of punishment
is enquired into. Now such is the constitution of human nature
in this respect and such the nature of the connection between the
several sorts of pain and the several sorts of acts that are
their causes by which they may be produced that it is scarce
possible in any instance to produce any sort of pain singly
by any sort of act. The most simple sort of punishment
that can be devised is apt to produce more than one single
sort of pain.

Abandoning these as impracticable that plan source method of arrangement
according to uponwhich Punishments would come to be distributed
according to the pains they were productive of we must look
out
