Being fully convinced of the influence of this relation, I try the effects of the other; and by changing virtue for vice, convert the pleasant impression, which arises from the former, into the disagreeable one, which proceeds from the latter.

 In like manner we always consider the natural and usual force of the passions, when we determine concerning vice and virtue; and if the passions depart very much from the common measures on either side, they are always disapproved as vicious. My second day I duplicated that in less than 30 minutes. As to the third sense of the word, it is certain, that both vice and virtue are equally artificial, and out of nature. Ideas always represent their objects or impressions; and vice versa, there are some objects necessary to give rise to every idea. Where the justice is entire, the property is also entire: Where the justice is imperfect, the property must also be imperfect And vice versa, if the property admit of no such variations, they must also be incompatible with justice. The virtue and vice must be part of our character in order to excite pride or humility. We shall begin with examining the passions of pride and humility, and shall consider the vice or virtue that lies in their excesses or just proportion.
