The form of speech whereby men signify their opinion of the goodness of anything, is “praise.” That whereby they signify the power and greatness of anything, is “magnifying.” And that whereby they signify the opinion they have of a man’s felicity, is by the Greeks called μακαρισμός , for which we have no name in our tongue. And thus much is sufficient for the present purpose, to have been said of the “passions.”
