As then the Workings are different so are their Pleasures; now

Sight differs from Touch in purity, and Hearing and Smelling from

Taste; therefore, in like manner, do their Pleasures; and again,

Intellectual Pleasures from these Sensual, and the different

kinds both of Intellectual and Sensual from one another.

It is thought, moreover, that each animal has a Pleasure proper

to itself, as it has a proper Work; that Pleasure of course which

is attendant on the Working. And the soundness of this will

appear upon particular inspection: for horse, dog, and man have

different Pleasures; as Heraclitus says, an ass would sooner have

hay than gold; in other words, provender is pleasanter to asses

than gold. So then the Pleasures of animals specifically

different are also specifically different, but those of the same,

we may reasonably suppose, are without difference.
