When any one misbehaves himself towards you, immediately bethink your self what Notions he has concerning Advantage and Disadvantage. When you have found out this, you'l pity him, and neither be angry, nor surprised at the Matter. It may be upon enquiry, you may find your Opinions upon these points much the same, and then you ought to pardon him; for you would have done the same thing your self upon the same Occasion. But if your Notions of Good and Evil, are different, and more just than his, then your Passion will yield to your Good Nature, and you'l easily bear with his Ignorance.
