The occupations history of a savage are soon when
provision has been made for the short catalogue
of things necessary for his subsistence, are soon is soon delineated
reckoned up described run over . Consult Ferguson Vengeance [of any affront he
may have taken remains unappeased] if any
quarrel he may have [ and then remains unsettled
drunkenness, if the means of intoxication are to be at
had hand, sleep or loitering if both those resources fail
him, which at least is seldom the case the first [at least does seldom] [such
are his occupations]. Each of these propensities is These causes favour re- on one
another favourable to the growth birth or action of the others.
Re Resentment finds an easy entrance into & it easy to enter into & later keeps
entire possession of his vacant mind. Idleness
invites to drunkenness: drunkenness sharpens exasperates the
appetite for revenge resentments produced by
past quarrels, & gives birth to new.
The pleasure of the amorous appetite, not
being set off complicated enriched by those ideal sentimental refinements which
embellish and diversify it so much among polished
nations, goes but a little way towards filling up the
vacuity.
