Nor will this reasoning be advantageous to us only by shewing, that the distinction of vice and virtue arises from the four principles of the advantage and of the pleasure of the person himself, and of others: But may also afford us a strong proof of some under-parts of that hypothesis. Secondly, I would have anyone give me a reason, why virtue and vice may not be involuntary, as well as beauty and deformity. A very play or romance may afford us instances of this pleasure, which virtue conveys to us; and pain, which arises from vice. Thus we are still brought back to our first position, that virtue is distinguished by the pleasure, and vice by the pain, that any action, sentiment or character gives us by the mere view and contemplation.
