They have all of them this one thing in common, viz that they are
[all of them] so many fictitious objects of possession — or,
(as it is said for shortness) so many possessions.
Our particular circumstance then is by which, while
they agree with one another, they are distinguished from most
if not all other possessions or objects of possession: viz. that
the love and desire of them is not scarcely capable of being carried to excess.
Whatsoever portion of them in this particular by this ground, as far as
words [and sentimentality] can go the value of them is placed or at any rate the propriety of the desire attaching of which they are
the objects
even above that of money. The attachment to money is
universally acknowledged to be capable of being carried to excess: the attachment to these
is commonly regarded, or at least spoken of, as not being capable
of being carried to excess.
