2) Homicide.
Mischiefs Private of much and fruitless enquiry. Many the a man would be puzzl'd find it difficult enough
to draw the ballance between that those allotments above of
each which have fallen to his own share.
No wonder he should be at a loss to determine
concerning what have fallen to the share of
others.
2 Unhappily it this is a ballance that can never
be fairly drawn. [Because] Since the misfortune is no man's memory
is accurate enough to present him with an
exact image Table recollection of all any thing near all the several pains and pleasures
he has felt experienced in the several degrees
of duration intensity and duration in which [he
felt them.] they were really experienced.
Again, what is past is no longer all that can
come to be reckoned in this manner to be reckoned. But
what is past is no longer of any concern than
as it is supposed to influence the existence or lead us to the conjecture of what is future.
If people endeavour to count or to weigh what is past,
it is only for the sake of calculating counting conjecturing and weighing what is
it seems likely to be future. But if If then with respect to the ballance proportion between happiness and unhappiness, were appearance of the past is uncertain, that of the
future sure is much more so.

a fallacy which it seems is not very difficult to out, detect
