Instructions
Nothing    can    possibly    be    conceived    in    the    world,    or    even    out    of    it,    which    can    be    called    good,    without    qualification,    except    a  ,  wit,    judgement,    and    the    other    talents    of    the    mind,    however    they    may    be    named,    or    courage,    resolution,    perseverance,    as    qualities    of    temperament,    are    undoubtedly    good    and    in    many    respects;    but    these    gifts    of    nature    may    also    become    extremely    bad    and    mischievous    if    the    which    is    to    make    use    of    them,    and    which,    therefore,    constitutes    what    is    called    character,    is    not    good.    It    is    the    same    with    the    gifts    of    fortune.    Power,    riches,    honour,    even    health,    and    the    general    and    contentment    with    one's    condition    which    is    called    happiness,    inspire    pride,    and    often    presumption,    if    there    is    not    a    good    will    to    correct    the    influence    of    these    on    the    mind,    and    with    this    also    to    rectify    the    whole    principle    of    acting    and    adapt    it    to    its    end.    The    sight    of    a    being    who    is    not    adorned    with    a    single    feature    of    a    pure    and    good    will,    enjoying    unbroken    prosperity,    can    never    give    pleasure    to    an    impartial    rational  .  Thus    a    good    will    appears    to    constitute    the    condition    even    of    being    worthy    of    happiness.
