Logic or Ethics Ch Object
6 Virtue what
Two Analogues for every virtue this should be semivirtues
What is curious enough is — that in
that by the exclusion imperfection of this sort, thus the an the exclusion
thus thus put upon virtue in this its most
perfect degree, every thing the whole would be comprized of that to
which, and to which alone the Aristotelians will allow
the appellation of virtue: for where for the exercise of the
virtue any thing of present inclination remains and requires
to be subdued, then, all be the subjugation ever so perfect
the title of virtue is still refused and to this
superior title the inferior title of semivirtus or half-virtue
is substituted.
Semivirtutes .... says the Oxford Compend sunt
Note (a)
(a) The allusion here is to another text of the Aristotelians,
viz. that in every case virtue consists — that is in other words every
species of virtue consists in mediocrity.
