Sentiment

The word sentiment, agreeably to the use made of it by our best English writers, expresses, in my own opinion very happily, those complex determinations of the mind which result from the coöperation of our rational powers and of our moral feelings.

Alike to council or the assembly came,
With equal souls and sentiments the same.

Sentiments of philosophers about the perception of external objects.

Sentiment, as here and elsewhere employed by Reid in the meaning of opinion (sententia), is not to be imitated.

Mr. Hume sometimes employs (after the manner of the French metaphysicians) sentiment as synonymous with feeling; a use of the word quite unprecedented in our tongue.

Less of sentiment than sense.
