Arrange the following sentences in the correct logical order:
1. The moral will arises when, for the reasons we saw earlier, this negation has to be negated; the individual moral will understands that it is the existence of the universal will, which is therefore internal to it.
2. This constitutes a negation, because the individual will is understood not to be the existence of the universal will.
3. This says that in abstract right, as we have just seen, the individual will takes its freedom (the universal will that has being in itself) to exist independent of (that is, in opposition to) itself and its particular contents.

If there is any value that does have value, it must lie outside the whole sphere of what happens and is the case. For all that happens and is the case is accidental. What makes it non-accidental cannot lie within the world, since if it did it would itself be accidental. It must lie outside the world.

3. It is clear that ethics cannot be put into words. Ethics is transcendental.

4. All propositions are of equal value.
