Comparative force of the three Sanctions.
<Prelim>
How strong soever the evidence may be in
favour of all these propositions it can never
come up to that evidence which we have of
propriety or impropriety of an action
in the moral view: that is I mean always of it's good or
evil influence upon the present happiness
of society. For the first we have a acknowledged
to be obscure of
which depends upon the [evidence] history of much touching
, wrapped up and close closely even
tually]
knowledge both for
have the genuine and immediate
evidence of our own feelings. I do
not mean by this any thing here said to should be
as drawing into question
of the sacred writings: all I wish is to
hold up to mind proper natures with respect
to the between the different kinds
of evidence
