English

If the man himself whose conduct we are examining is on the lowest stage of mental development, like a child, a mad-man, or a simpleton, then when we know the causes of the act and the simplicity of the character and intelligence, we see so great an element of necessity, and so little free will, that we can foretell the act that will follow, as soon as we know the cause bound to bring it forth.

Chinese

如果我们考察智力低下的人的行为,例如,考察一个小孩、一个疯子、一个傻子的行为,那么,因为我们知道他们的行为的原因和性格与智力的简单,我们就会看出必然性成分很大,自由意志成分很小,甚至我们一旦知道造成那种行为的原因,我们就可以预言它的结果。
