  1   Read        |       have written gives thee any desire that I should have gone
  2   Read        |    brought to let it go abroad, I desire it should be understood
  3   Read        |         of this Treatise, I shall desire him to read it through;
  4      I,  I    |        true in any other sense, I desire it may be shown; or at least,
  5      I,  II   |       confess, has put into man a desire of happiness and an aversion
  6      I,  II   |   concerning innate principles, I desire these men to say, whether
  7      I,  II   |          be examined and tried, I desire to know how first and innate
  8      I,  III  |           observation. And then I desire an instance of an idea,
  9      I,  III  |          are not in the memory, I desire him to explain himself,
 10     II,  VII  |      Inane. I grant all this, but desire any one to assign any simple
 11     II,  XIII |           determined ideas. And I desire those who lay so much stress
 12     II,  XIII |       plainly to evince it. For I desire any one so to divide a solid
 13     II,  XIII |        without extension,—I shall desire them to consider, that,
 14     II,  XIV  |         call in such as he hath a desire or use of: but hinder the
 15     II,  XX   |          however caused in us.~6. Desire. The uneasiness a man finds
 16     II,  XX   |          with it, is that we call desire; which is greater or less,
 17     II,  XX   |           without it, there is no desire of it, nor endeavour after
 18     II,  XX   |      signify the lowest degree of desire, and that which is next
 19     II,  XX   |           the means to attain it. Desire also is stopped or abated
 20     II,  XX   |        consideration of a good we desire obtained by one we think
 21     II,  XX   |          in all men. For we love, desire, rejoice, and hope, only
 22     II,  XXI  |       large explain.~30. Will and desire must not be confounded.
 23     II,  XXI  |          like terms, that signify desire as well as volition, for
 24     II,  XXI  |        the affections, especially desire, and one put for the other;
 25     II,  XXI  |      perfectly distinguished from desire; which, in the very same
 26     II,  XXI  |          it is plain the will and desire run counter. I will the
 27     II,  XXI  |          tends one way, whilst my desire tends another, and that
 28     II,  XXI  |         there is pain, there is a desire to be rid of it), though
 29     II,  XXI  |           much more distinct from desire.~31. Uneasiness determines
 30     II,  XXI  | uneasiness we may call, as it is, desire; which is an uneasiness
 31     II,  XXI  |        with this is always joined desire, equal to the pain or uneasiness
 32     II,  XXI  |      distinguishable from it. For desire being nothing but an uneasiness
 33     II,  XXI  |          attained, we may call it desire; nobody feeling pain that
 34     II,  XXI  |        not to be eased of, with a desire equal to that pain, and
 35     II,  XXI  | inseparable from it. Besides this desire of ease from pain, there
 36     II,  XXI  |           good; and here also the desire and uneasiness are equal.
 37     II,  XXI  |          are equal. As much as we desire any absent good, so much
 38     II,  XXI  |     greatness; as all pain causes desire equal to itself: because
 39     II,  XXI  |         on and considered without desire. But so much as there is
 40     II,  XXI  |           as there is anywhere of desire, so much there is of uneasiness.~
 41     II,  XXI  |       there is of uneasiness.~32. Desire is uneasiness. That desire
 42     II,  XXI  |        Desire is uneasiness. That desire is a state of uneasiness,
 43     II,  XXI  |        there that has not felt in desire what the wise man says of
 44     II,  XXI  |           to the greatness of the desire, which sometimes raises
 45     II,  XXI  | uneasiness.~33. The uneasiness of desire determines the will. Good
 46     II,  XXI  |      action, is the uneasiness of desire, fixed on some absent good:
 47     II,  XXI  |     determine the will, until our desire, raised proportionably to
 48     II,  XXI  |         under, till it raises our desire; and the uneasiness of that
 49     II,  XXI  |         in love; or the impatient desire of revenge, keeps the will
 50     II,  XXI  |         whether this be not so, I desire every one to observe in
 51     II,  XXI  |           observe in himself.~40. Desire accompanies all uneasiness.
 52     II,  XXI  |    instanced in the uneasiness of desire, as that which determines
 53     II,  XXI  |           performed, without some desire accompanying it; which I
 54     II,  XXI  |           reason why the will and desire are so often confounded.
 55     II,  XXI  |      passions to be found without desire joined with it. I am sure
 56     II,  XXI  |           is uneasiness, there is desire. For we constantly desire
 57     II,  XXI  |         desire. For we constantly desire happiness; and whatever
 58     II,  XXI  |           beyond the present, and desire goes with our foresight,
 59     II,  XXI  |         enjoyment depends, is the desire to continue it, and fear
 60     II,  XXI  |       reaches no further.~42. All desire happiness. If it be further
 61     II,  XXI  |           asked,—What it is moves desire? I answer,—happiness, and
 62     II,  XXI  |           be the proper object of desire in general; yet all good,
 63     II,  XXI  |       move every particular man’s desire; but only that part, or
 64     II,  XXI  |          he can look upon without desire, pass by, and be content
 65     II,  XXI  |         study, when shame, or the desire to recommend himself to
 66     II,  XXI  |          happiness, they begin to desire it.~45. Why the greatest
 67     II,  XXI  |          determination of will or desire to the greatest apparent
 68     II,  XXI  |         it, and raised in us some desire: which then beginning to
 69     II,  XXI  |          Due consideration raises desire. And thus, by a due consideration,
 70     II,  XXI  |           mind, being only, which desire shall be next satisfied,
 71     II,  XXI  |       long as any uneasiness, any desire, remains in our mind, there
 72     II,  XXI  |    suspend the prosecution of any desire makes way for consideration.
 73     II,  XXI  |       prosecution of this or that desire; as every one daily may
 74     II,  XXI  |     during this suspension of any desire, before the will be determined
 75     II,  XXI  |      perfection of our nature, to desire, will, and act according
 76     II,  XXI  |           much a perfection, that desire, or the power of preferring,
 77     II,  XXI  |         mad already. The constant desire of happiness, and the constraint
 78     II,  XXI  |         to suspend any particular desire, and keep it from determining
 79     II,  XXI  |        not to be free; though the desire of some convenience to be
 80     II,  XXI  |     necessary compliance with our desire, set upon any particular,
 81     II,  XXI  |       scrutiny of each successive desire, whether the satisfaction
 82     II,  XXI  |        intellectual beings; and I desire it may be well considered,
 83     II,  XXI  |          good and evil of what we desire. What follows after that,
 84     II,  XXI  |       present satisfaction of any desire.~54. Government of our passions
 85     II,  XXI  |           leaving any relish, any desire of itself there, till, by
 86     II,  XXI  |        pass, that, though all men desire happiness, yet their wills
 87     II,  XXI  |          his happiness, it raises desire, and that proportionably
 88     II,  XXI  |         our present happiness, we desire not to venture the change;
 89     II,  XXI  |       often are not raised to the desire of the greatest absent good.
 90     II,  XXI  |       comes that, at any rate, we desire to be rid of the present
 91     II,  XXI  |  oftentimes a very great one, the desire being inflamed by a near
 92     II,  XXI  |     uneasiness, either of pain or desire, which is present. For,
 93     II,  XXI  |         give place to any present desire; and conclude with themselves
 94     II,  XXI  |  agreeable to everyone’s wish and desire: could we suppose their
 95     II,  XXI  |         to our happiness. All men desire happiness, that is past
 96     II,  XXI  |        being happy, till some new desire, by making them uneasy,
 97     II,  XXI  |         actions into pleasure and desire, if they will do but what
 98     II,  XXI  |          accompanied with that of desire. Desire is always moved
 99     II,  XXI  |  accompanied with that of desire. Desire is always moved by evil,
100     II,  XXI  |          does not constantly move desire, because it may not make,
101     II,  XXI  |        happiness. For all that we desire, is only to be happy. But,
102     II,  XXI  |          But, though this general desire of happiness operates constantly
103     II,  XXI  |    satisfaction of any particular desire can be suspended from determining
104     II,  XXI  |       apparent good which we then desire makes a part of our real
105     II,  XXI  |           by anything but his own desire, guided by his own judgment.
106     II,  XXIII|         to our present purpose, I desire him to put it into intelligible
107    III,  VI   |         name is annexed to? And I desire any one but to reflect on
108    III,  VI   |        with some obscurity. But I desire it may be considered, how
109    III,  X    |          what fault it can be, to desire the explication of words
110    III,  XI   |          a bird or no. And here I desire it may be considered, and
111     IV,  III  |       never reach to all we might desire to know concerning those
112     IV,  III  |           be expected, whilst the desire of esteem, riches, or power
113     IV,  III  |    incurable ignorance of what we desire to know about them. I doubt
114     IV,  IV   |      groundless and ridiculous. I desire then those who think there
115     IV,  IV   |           what. But, after all, I desire it may be considered, that
116     IV,  V    |         meditations if one should desire them to think only of the
117     IV,  XI   |     knowledge of anything: I must desire him to consider, that, if
118     IV,  XI   |    evidence is as great as we can desire, being as certain to us
119     IV,  XII  |      never heard or thought of? I desire any one to consider, from
120     IV,  XII  |        load of particulars. For I desire it may be considered, what
121     IV,  XIV  |      capable of to excite in us a desire and endeavour after a better
122     IV,  XVII |          thing more which I shall desire to be considered concerning
123     IV,  XVII |           willing to find it, and desire to make the best use they
