E has the Pofleffor more than " others, to whofe Eyes they are expofed ' as well as his?" OUR publick "Dejires are afFe&ed by confufed Ideas, in the fame manner with our private Defires. What is apprehended as of the PASSIONS. 97 as Good, thro* an Aflbciation of foreign Sedt 4. Ideas, fhall be purfued for thofe we love, as l/VNj well as what is really good for them. Our benevolent ^Paffions in the nearer Ties, are as apt to be too violent as any whatfbever : this we may often experience in the ...Love of Offspring, Relations, Tarties, Cabals. The Violence of our Paflion makes us fometimes incapable of purfuing effectually their Good, and finks us into an ufelefs State of Sorrow upon their Misfortunes. Com- fajjlon often makes the Evil greater to the Spectator than to the Sufferer; and fome- times fubje&s the Happinefs of a Perfon of great Worth, to every Accident befalling one entirely void of it. THE Defire of Virtue, upon extenfive impartial Schemes of publick Happinefs, can fcarce be too flrong ; but, upon miftaken* or partial Views of publick Good, this Defire of Virtue may often lead Men into very pernicious Actions.
