[12] These words, [Greek: ek tou bouleusasthai-bouleusin],

contain the account of the whole mental machinery of any action.

The first step is a Wish, implied in the first here mentioned,

viz. Deliberation, for it has been already laid down that

Deliberation has for its object-matter means to Ends supposed to

be set before the mind, the next step is Deliberation, the next

Decision, the last the definite extending of the mental hand

towards the object thus selected, the two last constitute [Greek:

proairesis] in its full meaning. The word [Greek: orexis] means

literally "a grasping at or after" now as this physically may be

either vague or definite, so too may the mental act, consequently

the term as transferred to the mind has two uses, and denotes

either the first wish, [Greek: boulaesis], or the last definite

movement, Will in its strict and proper sense.

These two uses are recognised in the Rhetoric (I 10), where

[Greek: orexis] is divided into [Greek: alogos] and [Greek:

logistikae].
