THESIS. It belongs to Grammarians to examine what qualities are entitled to the denomination of virtue; nor will they find, upon trial, that this is so easy a task, as at first sight they may be apt to imagine. The words or discourses of others have an intimate connexion with certain ideas in their mind; and these ideas have also a connexion with the facts or objects, which they represent. Since therefore the memory, is known, neither by the order of its complex ideas, nor the nature of its simple ones; it follows, that the difference betwixt it and the imagination lies in its superior force and vivacity. What then am I to understand by the question; "How can the manifold be connected in the phenomenon itself--not considered as a thing in itself, but merely as a phenomenon?" [*Footnote; Sensibility, subjected to the understanding, as the object upon which the understanding employs its functions, is the source of real cognitions. The reflection on several instances only repeats the same objects; and therefore can never give rise to a new idea. The general opinion of mankind has some authority in all cases; but in this of morals it is perfectly infallible. Saved me the trouble of getting another merchant account to accept credit cards for this. These, however adorned, and hid under whatever embellishments of rhetoric and sentiment, are at bottom identical with the arguments we are at present to discuss.
