Virtue at any rate in the useful acceptation
of it denotes a factitious quality in contradistinction
to a natural on .. I say useful, for in as far as
it comes of its own accord, no attention, or regard
paid to it is either needful or useful.
In so far as x it is the result of an exercise of the will of
attention fixt upon the subject, and hardly not end in
view. In the first instance, requiring a sacrifice of prisa
to further x good, it requires and is accompanied
with self-denial: but suppose a degree more or less
of uneasiness: but as practice grows into a habit the
uneasiness grows less and less, and in many instances
will vanish altogether: or in the case of positive effects
benevolence.
