Without being an enemy of virtue, a cool observer, one that does not mistake the wish for good, however lively, for its reality, may sometimes doubt whether true virtue is actually found anywhere in the world, and this especially as years
increase
and the judgement is partly made wiser by experience and partly, also, more acute in observation.
