This naturally gives us an uneasiness, in considering such seditious and disloyal actions, and makes us attach to them the idea of vice and moral deformity.

  PART I OF VIRTUE AND VICE IN GENERAL The very essence of virtue, according to this hypothesis, is to produce pleasure and that of vice to give pain. The vice entirely escapes you, as long as you consider the object. But can there be any difficulty in proving, that vice and virtue are not matters of fact, whose existence we can infer by reason? Take any action allowed to be vicious: Wilful murder, for instance. The vice entirely escapes you, as long as you consider the object. If belief consisted only in a certain vivacity, conveyed from an original impression, it would decay by the length of the transition, and must at last be utterly extinguished: And vice versa, if belief on some occasions be not capable of such an extinction; it must be something different from that vivacity. SECT. VII OF VICE AND VIRTUE Besides, the commerce of mankind is not confined to the barter of commodities, but may extend to services and actions, which we may exchange to our mutual interest and advantage.
