Evidence
Suppose it, although howsoever necessary, at this same yet greater in value than the
good in the endeavour for the removal of which it would is proposed to be produced,
it be the same thing that is and thence in other words than the evil for
the repulsion of which it is proposed to be employed. In this
case the result must again be a portion of pure evil: a ballance
on the side of evil to the difference in value on the side of evil between the
good produced and the act introduced between evil kept out repelled and the evil introduced. Second limitation
narrowing still further the description of the evil to be avoided, the limitation
applied by the epithet preponderant: instead of vexation simply,
say vexation unnecessary or preponderant: – and so of the
rest.
