INTRODUCTION CH. II.
Definitions — Dimensions of Happiness
Ch. 3. Of Law in general Measures of its expediency [Of all the speculations of] Mathematicians, there is none more celebrated nor more incontestible
than that concerning the three dimensions of Body, Length, Breadth & depth without the union of
which there is no conceiving it's the union of all which is necessary to the conception of it's existence. If we would attain to the accuracy of their speculations, we must imitate follow their example: & by taking our subject to focus in the same regular manner, & viewing it in the same steady light as they have done theirs, learn to give upon occasion to each of idea which are distinguishable in our subject, it's separate consideration
Analogous too & equally incontestible with these, Happiness has also its dimensions
attributed to a single person, those of 1st Intensity: 2d. Duration: attributed to many
Purity, and Probability. as to a State, another, that of number: i:e: of the persons possessing it.
Happiness as to what concerns the amplitude of it's acceptition, has 2 Lenses. The
