pain a man suffers who is punished is more than
equivalent to any other pleasure which any one other
man can take at seeing it. And Now if this be so in
one case it will probably be so in all. For the that
pleasure will only be in proportion to the strength of the
resentment.
If the resentment be weak, the pleasure is
small: if strong, the resentment takes the more
pain to satiate it. If Besides this pain be carried to a higher degree
