     summary: And thus they cautiously limit Pleasure , only to those Appetites to which Nature leads us ; for they reckon that Nature leads us only to those Delights to which Reason as well as Sense carries us , and by which we neither injure any other Person , nor let go greater Pleasures for it ; and which do not draw troubles on us after them : but they look upon those Delights which Men , by a foolish tho common Mistake , call Pleasure , as if they could change the Nature of Things , as well as the use of Words , as things that not only do not advance our Happiness , but do rather obstruct it very much , because they do so entirely possess the Minds of those that once go into them , with a false Notion of Pleasure , that there is no room left for truer and purer Pleasures . I Am almost ashamed , my dearest Peter Giles , to send you this Book of the Utopian Common-Wealth , after almost a Years delay ; whereas no doubt you look'd for it within six Weeks : for as you know I had no occasion for using my Invention , or for taking pains to put things into any method , because I had nothing to do , but to repeat exactly those things that I heard Raphael relate in your presence ; so neither was there any occasion given for a studied Eloquence : since as he delivered things to us of the sudden , and in a careless Stile ; so he being , as you know , a greater Master of the Greek , than of the Latin ; the plainer my words are , they will resemble his simplicity the more : and will be by consequence the nearer to the Truth , and that is all that I think lies on me : and it is indeed the only thing in which I thought my self concerned .

I carefully examined the ways and means by which Lawyers attain to Riches and Dignities , and found there was much of fraud and indirect proceeding in them , and that unless I did comply with men of that Calling in all these vices , I should never get either Wealth or Credit by my practice .
