The value ratio of any things whereof one is greater than
another may be expressed in numbers : at
the least to such exactness as shall answer equally
well with absolute truth in practise.
Now every one will allow that if any one pleasure
may be greater than another one well in
respect of duration as of intensity : and of
pleasures possible or expectative any one may be gr more
likely to happen - than another , that is may
be more probably have be greater <add>in probability</add> , and may also be to happen
sooner, if it happens at all, that is , may
be greater in proximity .
Now then take 2 pleasures , either of the
same man , or of 2 different men, no
matter which; and for the sake of distiMdel>ncguishing
one from the other , call one A,
the other B.
