[28] Practical Wisdom may be employed either respecting Self,

(which is [Greek:--] proper) or not-Self, i.e. either one's

family=[Greek:--], or one's community=[Greek:--], but here the

supreme and subordinate are distinguished, the former is

[Greek:--], the latter [Greek:--] proper, whose functions are

deliberation and the administration of justice.

[29] But where can this be done, if there be no community? see

Horace's account of the way in which his father made him reap

instruction from the examples in the society around him. 1. Sat.

iv. 105, etc. See also Bishop Butler, Analogy, part I. chap. v.

sect. iii.

The whole question of the Selfish Morality is treated in Bishop

Butler's first three and the eleventh Sermons, in which he shows

the coincidence in fact of enlightened Self-Love and Benevolence

i.e. love of others. Compare also what is said in the first Book

of this treatise, chap. v., about [Greek: autarkeia].
