 Here it must be specially remembered that we must consider the order of time and not the lapse thereof. Consequently, every transition from one state into another is always effected in a time contained between two moments, of which the first determines the state which leaves, and the second determines the state into the thing passes. and yet must be reckoned with them, but at the same time without in the least altering, or indicating a deficiency in that table. Thus it appears, that sympathy is a very powerful principle in human nature, that it has a great influence on our taste of beauty, and that it produces our sentiment of morals in all the artificial virtues. Take a look at some of these statistics: At age 50, 75% of the population has less than $5,000 in the bank for retirement. But as I hasten a full and decisive proof of these systems, I delay this examination for a moment: And in the mean time shall endeavour to convert to my present purpose all my reaaonings concerning pride and humility, by an argument that isfounded on unquestionable e The labour of the thought disturbs the regular progress of the sentiments, as we shall observe presently.[Part IV.
