In the first two paragraphs, Rousseau expresses his doubts about the usefulness of knowledge brought by experience by comparing its cost and gain. He points out that since the lessons are dearly bought, the profit is not worth the price; since they come so late, they are of no use to us. Besides, they are even harmful to our life for they make us painful by telling us the truth of life.
