So, it is true may a rule, but not only in a
form comparatively embarrassing and inconvenient —
this will appear by taking in hand any sentence
in which a principle has place and instead of
the principle employing the corresponding rule —

Upon occasion into any one sentence
principles in any number may be inserted:
and the greater the number the stronger will be
the impression of the embarrassment saved by the
substitution of the principles to the rules —

A principle, as above is no more than
a single term; — but that term may as well be
composite, a compound of two or more words, as single. — Of
these words one must be a noun substantive; the other
must be either a noun adjective, or a participle: including
under the appellation of a noun adjective, a noun
substantive employed in that character, in the mode
which is so happily in use in the English language,
and gives it in comparison of every language in
which this mode is not in use a most eminently
and incontestably useful advantage —

By an Axiom nothing more is meant than
a sort of rule, of which, by certain properties, the
combination of which is peculiar to it, the usefulness
is preeminent in comparison of other rules. — These
properties are

1. Incontestableness

2. Comprehensiveness

3. Clearness

As to axioms the axioms that belong to this subject are axioms
of mental pathology — The facts they are enuntiative of are facts enuntiative
of certain sensations, as being produced by certain events or
states of things operating as their efficient causes

By a reason for any act is conveyed the idea of its supposed addition
actual or probable to the Greatest Happiness — This effect may be produced
either 1. immediately; or 2 through an intervening chain of any number of links.
