1 § Purity & Impurity
impure pain is as proper as do pleasure.
§. Of purity, considered in relation to pain and pleasure

which the word purity has been employed in the highest degree, it is necessary
to place bring the distinction to view, and place it upon the clearest ground. Throughout
the whole field of morals, the solidity of the foundation
built upon the difference between sense and nonsense — between
wisdom and folly, between utilitarianism and
asceticism between wisdom one to word and folly, is
in a prominent degree dependent upon it.
In the arithmetical or mathematical sense alone has
is it employed in this work or unless it be well warning of the departure in any other of the at
author.
In this sense a pleasure is pure, exactly in so far as
it is unaccompanied, pure in so far as it is unaccompanied with sensations feelings of the opposite quality,
viz. with pains: impure in so far as
In this sense same sense, what is in regard to
pains what is equally manifest is that to them the attributes,
impurity and purity apply with exactly the same propriety as to
pleasures.
Thence In this sense in the account of well-being, by help of the two words impurity and
purity may be used are designated ideas as clear as no less clear than
in the account of money, those designated by the terms
profit and loss. Purity is profit . impurity, loss.
A The case of a pleasure preponderantly impure is corresponds to the case of a money
account of profit and loss, in which the balance is on the
side of loss. A The case of a part preponderantly impure is the case of a money
account in which the balance is on the side of profit.
