'Tis an old Remark, that Vice always endeavours to assume the
Appearance of Virtue: Thus Covetousness calls itself _Prudence_;
_Prodigality_ would be thought _Generosity_; and so of others. This
perhaps arises hence, that Mankind naturally and universally approve
Virtue in their Hearts, and detest Vice; and therefore, whenever
thro' Temptation they fall into a Practice of the latter, they would
if possible conceal it from themselves as well as others, under some
other Name than that which properly belongs to it.
