2 Compensation
Compensation may be distinguished into vindictive and
Compensation vindictive + lucrative
lucrative. Vindictive supposes ill-will a resentment entertained
by the sufferer against him who was the author of
the suffering: a sentiment which disposes the former to
reap a pleasure (to wit of the irascible appetite) from the suffering of the latter. To
receive a compensation of the vindictive kind is to enjoy
that such a pleasure. By lucrative I mean I call the comp it lucrative [Compensation] when the pleasure received
is any other kind of pleasure: for instance the pleasure
of possession derived from the receipt of such
a sum of money. The is that which This is what is commonly
meant by those who speak of Compensation; and it
is in that this sense I shall henceforward use it, unless
the epithet lucrative vindictive be subjoined.
Vindictive Compensation never adequate.
Compensation of the vindictive kind can
never be adequate. For the pleasure it brings will
only be in proportion to the resentment, and let that
resentment have been as strong as it will, the pleasure
which any one person can reap in of satiating it, will never be equivalent to the pain
of him from whose suffering it is derived
from which it is reaped. The stronger the
resentment is, the more pain it takes to satiate it.
So that if the pleasure is not when at the lowest degree [is
not] equal to the pain at the expence of which it is
produced, no more is it when at the highest. If the pain
of the party punished sufferer be more be carried to a higher degree than the party damaged has an
not in form of a question
appetite for, the pleasure of the latter received an .

Compensation vindictive whether it can be ever adequate
Can a compensation of the vindictive kind ever be adequate?
to the pain of the resentment which occasioned it? Between quanti-
-ties so incapable as these are of being measured I know no method of
coming to any very precise conclusion. To enable me to give the best answer
