Well, my marginalia on Chapman, p. 66, rather.
It's all about
first person: "I"
second person: "Thou"
third person: "She"
It strikes Grice that for the behaviourist (a 'silly' one in his descript), the first person is really the _third_ person.
On the other hand, seeing that 'prosona' is such an ungly Grecianism, who coined 'prima persona' to mean the silly thing it means -- e.g. in blessed Anscombe, "The First Person". One wonders.

I am reminded of so-called "second-personal ethics", too! Genial!
