THEORY OF ETHICS. 213 of our past self which we despise in others, there is developed in our hearts another element of that moral sense. It is a remarkable instance of the power of the law of association, that the contempt or abhorrence which we feel for the bad actions of others may be transferred by it, in any degree of strength, to our own past actions of the like kind. And as the hatred of bad actions is transferred to the agent, the same trans- fer may occur in our own case in a manner per
...fectly similar to that of which we are conscious in our feel- ings towards our fellow-creatures. There are many causes which render it generally feebler : but it is perfectly evident that it requires no more than a suffi- cient strength of moral feeling to make it equal ; and that the most apparently hyperbolical language used by penitents, in describing their remorse, may be justified by the principle of association.
At this step in our progress, it is proper to observe, that a most important consideration has escaped Hartley, as well as every other philosopher.
