the_o name_n of_o wrong_a judgement_n but_o of_o that_o wrong_a judgement_n which_o every_o man_n himself_o must_v confess_v to_o be_v so_o §_o 41._o i._n therefore_o as_o to_o present_a pleasure_n

compare_v present_a pleasure_n or_o pain_n with_o future_a we_o often_o make_v wrong_a judgement_n of_o they_o take_v our_o measure_n of_o they_o in_o different_a position_n of_o distance_n object_n near_o our_o view_n be_v apt_a to_o be_v think_v great_a than_o those_o of_o a_o large_a size_n that_o be_v more_o remote_a and_o so_o it_o be_v with_o pleasure_n and_o pain_n the_o present_a be_v apt_a to_o carry_v it_o and_o those_o at_o a_o distance_n have_v the_o disadvantage_n in_o the_o comparison_n thus_o most_o man_n like_o spendthrift_n heir_n be_v apt_a to_o judge_v a_o little_a in_o

every_o one_o must_v allow_v let_v his_o pleasure_n consist_v in_o whatever_o it_o will_v since_o that_o which_o be_v future_a will_v certain_o come_v to_o be_v present_a and_o then_o have_v the_o

pleasure_n of_o drink_v accompany_v the_o very_a moment_n a_o man_n take_v off_o his_o glass_n with_o that_o sick_a stomach_n and_o ake_v head_n which_o in_o some_o man_n be_v sure_a to_o follow_v not_o many_o hour_n after_o i_o think_v no_o body_n whatever_o pleasure_n he_o have_v in_o his_o cup_n will_v on_o these_o condition_n ever_o let_v wine_n touch_v his_o lip_n which_o yet_o he_o gay_o swallow_v and_o the_o evil_a side_n come_v to_o be_v choose_v only_o by_o the_o fallacy_n of_o a_o little_a difference_n in_o time_n but_o if_o pleasure_n or_o pain_n can_v be_v so_o lessen_v only_o
