To the case and to that alone, in which, the motion or motions, being of the thelematic and therein moreover of the ergastic kind, have had for their prime mover or principal agent concerned a rational or at least a sentient being, belong the words end, design, and means - end, operation, means, design.

Of the word end, and its synonym - the compound term end-in-view, an /the/ exposition has been already given, the idea of some good (i.e. pleasure or exemption from pain in this or that shape or shapes) as about eventually to result to the agent in question from the proposed act in question.

The term /word/ means is a term alike applicable with equal propriety to the designation of body considered in the character of an instrument, or any action or motion considered in the character of an operation, tending to the production of a work, or any good looked to in the character of an end.

Productive and unproductive - under one or other of these denominations, as the case is /may/ be, may be referred the action in question in the case /in so far as/ where being of the thelematic and moreover of the ergastic kind, it has for its end in view the bringing into existence any intended result in the character of a work.
