ADDENDA ET CORRIGENDA
p. 31. Aristotle calls the end [Greek: _to telos_]; the means, [Greek: ta
pros to telos] (St. Thomas, _ea quae sunt ad finem_); the circumstances,
[Greek: ta ein ois hae praxis].
Observe, both end and means are willed _directly_, but the
circumstances indirectly.
The end is _intended_, [Greek: boulaeton]; the means are _chosen_,
[Greek: proaireton]; the circumstances are simply _permitted_, [Greek:
anekton], rightly or wrongly. The intention of the end is called by
English philosophers the _motive_; while the choice of means they call
the _intention_, an unfortunate terminology.
p. 42, §. 3. "As the wax takes all shapes, and yet is wax still at the
bottom; the [Greek: spokeimenon] still is wax; so the soul transported
in so many several passions of joy, fear, hope, sorrow, anger, and the

rest, has for its general groundwork of all this, Love." (Henry More,
quoted in Carey's Dante, _Purgatorio_, c. xviii.) Hence, says Carey,
Love does not figure in Collins's Ode on the Passions.
p. 43. For daring read recklessness.
p. 44. Plato is a thorough Stoic when he says (Phaedo 83) that every
pleasure and pain comes with a nail to pin down the soul to the body
and make it corporeal. His Stoicism appears in his denunciation of the
drama (_Republic_, x. 604).
p. 47, §. 8. The first chapter of Mill's _Autobiography_, pp. 48-53,
133-149, supplies an instance.
p. 49, §. I, 1. 2, for physical read psychical.
P. 52. §. 5. This _serving_, in [Greek: douleuein], St. Ignatius calls
"inordinate attachment," the modern form of idolatry. Cf. Romans vi.
16-22.
p. 79. For spoiled read spoilt.
p. 84, foot. For ways read way.
p. 85, 1. 6 from foot. Substitute: ([Greek: b]) to restrain the said
appetite in its irascible part from shrinking from danger.
p. 94, middle. For others read other.
p. 95. For Daring read Recklessness.
p. 103, middle. Substitute, _"neither evening star nor morning star is so
wonderful."_
p. 106, §. 6. Aristotle speaks of "corrective," not of "commutative"
justice. On the Aristotelian division of justice see Political and Moral
Essays (P. M. E.), pp. 285-6.
p. 111, §. 4. The static equivalent of the dynamic idea, of orderly
development is that the eternal harmonies and fitnesses of things, by
observance or neglect whereof a man comes to be in or out of harmony
with himself, with his fellows, with God.
p. 133. To the Readings add Plato _Laws_, ix, 875, A, B, C, D.
p. 151. Rewrite the Note thus: _The author has seen reason somewhat
to modify this view, as appears by the
