In the contract, I acquire a property on account of the particular character of the thing, and at the same time, in accordance with its inner universality, in part as to its value, in part as arising from the property of the other party. Through the arbitrary will of the other party, a false semblance concerning this can be brought before me, such that the contract, as the free mutual consent of an exchange concerning this thing, in its immediate singularity, has its correctness, while the side of the universal existing in itself is lacking in it. (The infinite judgment, according to its positive expression, or identical meaning. See the Encyclopaedia of the Philosophical Sciences, § 121.)
