The very essence of virtue, according to this hypothesis, is to produce pleasure and that of vice to give pain.

 Now it has been observed, that our own sensations determine the vice and virtue of any quality, as well as those sensations, which it may excite in others. For whether the passion of self-interest be esteemed vicious or virtuous, it is all a case; since itself alone restrains it: So that if it be virtuous, men become social by their virtue; if vicious, their vice has the same effect. 
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 discussion of this question will be more proper, when we enter upon an exact detail of each particular vice and virtue.
