only_o because_o our_o method_n will_v require_v they_o there_o at_o present_a let_v it_o suffice_v that_o i_o bring_v a_o most_o sensible_a and_o uncontroverted_a instance_n wherein_o we_o find_v many_o judgement_n confound_v with_o one_o and_o the_o same_o sensation_n i_o suppose_v there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n who_o look_v on_o the_o moon_n do_v not_o see_v she_o about_o a_o mile_n distance_n from_o he_o and_o find_v she_o great_a at_o her_o rise_n and_o set_v than_o in_o the_o meridian_n or_o when_o a_o good_a way_n elevate_v above_o the_o horizon_n and_o perhaps_o too_o he_o fancy_v he_o only_o see_v she_o large_a without_o think_v there_o be_v any_o judgement_n in_o his_o sensation_n however_o it_o be_v undoubted_o certain_a that_o if_o he_o have_v no_o kind_n of_o judgement_n include_v in_o his_o sensation_n he_o will_v not_o see_v she_o at_o that_o distance_n she_o appear_v to_o he_o and_o beside_o will_v see_v she_o lesser_a at_o her_o rise_n than_o when_o in_o her_o exaltation_n above_o the_o horizon_n since_o we_o only_o see_v her_o great_a at_o her_o rise_n because_o we_o judge_v she_o more_o remote_a by_o a_o natural_a judgement_n which_o i_o have_v speak_v to_o in_o the_o six_o chapter_n but_o beside_o our_o natural_a judgement_n which_o may_v be_v regard_v as_o compound_v sensation_n there_o occur_v in_o almost_o all_o our_o sensation_n a_o free_a or_o voluntary_a judgement_n for_o man_n do_v not_o only_o judge_v by_o a_o natural_a judgement_n that_o pain_n for_o instance_n be_v in_o the_o hand_n they_o judge_v it_o be_v by_o a_o free_a and_o voluntary_a judgement_n also_o they_o not_o only_o feel_v it_o there_o but_o believe_v it_o there_o too_o and_o they_o be_v so_o strong_o habituate_v to_o form_v such_o sort_n of_o judgement_n that_o they_o find_v great_a difficulty_n to_o forbear_v they_o when_o they_o will_v and_o yet_o these_o judgement_n be_v most_o false_a in_o themselves_o though_o very_o advantageous_a to_o the_o

and_o adapt_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o sense_n be_v very_o remote_a from_o truth_n but_o not_o to_o leave_v these_o thing_n without_o show_v how_o to_o discover_v the_o reason_n of_o they_o we_o must_v take_v notice_n that_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o being_n being_n which_v our_o soul_n immediate_o see_v and_o other_o which_o she_o know_v only_o by_o the_o mediation_n of_o the_o former_a when_o for_o instance_n i_o perceive_v the_o sun_n arise_v i_o first_o perceive_v that_o which_o i_o immediate_o see_v and_o because_o my_o perception_n of_o the_o former_a be_v only_o occasion_v by_o something_o without_o i_o which_o produce_v certain_a motion_n in_o my_o eye_n and_o in_o my_o brain_n i_o judge_v the_o former_a sun_n which_o be_v in_o my_o soul_n to_o be_v without_o i_o and_o to_o exist_v it_o may_v notwithstanding_o happen_v that_o we_o may_v see_v the_o first_o sun_n which_o be_v intimate_o unite_v to_o our_o soul_n though_o the_o other_o be_v not_o above_o the_o horizon_n or_o though_o it_o do_v not_o exist_v at_o all_o and_o thus_o we_o may_v see_v the_o first_o sun_n great_a when_o the_o other_o rise_v than_o when_o elevate_v high_a above_o the_o horizon_n and_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o first_o sun_n which_o we_o see_v immediate_o be_v great_a at_o the_o other_o rise_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o the_o other_o be_v so_o too_o for_o it_o be_v not_o proper_o that_o which_o rise_v which_o we_o see_v since_o that_o be_v many_o million_o of_o league_n remote_a but_o it_o be_v the_o former_a which_o be_v true_o great_a and_o such_o exact_o as_o we_o see_v it_o because_o all_o the_o thing_n we_o immediate_o see_v be_v always_o such_o as_o we_o see_v they_o and_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v deceive_v do_v we_o not_o

of_o it_o but_o herein_o consist_v our_o error_n that_o without_o any_o reason_n and_o indeed_o against_o all_o reason_n we_o will_v have_v this_o light_n which_o we_o see_v immediate_o to_o exist_v in_o the_o sun_n which_o be_v without_o we_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o the_o other_o object_n of_o our_o sense_n upon_o a_o due_a attention_n to_o what_o have_v be_v say_v from_o the_o beginning_n and_o in_o the_o process_n of_o this_o work_n judgement_n it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o see_v that_o among_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o occur_v in_o every_o sensation_n error_n be_v only_o to_o be_v

to_o the_o three_o thing_n which_o be_v proper_o sensation_n when_o we_o feel_v heat_n when_o we_o see_v light_n colour_n or_o other_o object_n it_o be_v certain_o true_a that_o we_o see_v they_o

in_o the_o first_o man_n because_o in_o the_o instant_n they_o give_v he_o any_o he_o by_o a_o act_n of_o his_o will_n withstand_v the_o impression_n and_o in_o the_o very_a instant_n of_o that_o

in_o his_o fidelity_n but_o to_o persuade_v ourselves_o that_o the_o first_o man_n be_v never_o overtake_v with_o the_o sense_n of_o any_o lively_a pain_n we_o need_v but_o consider_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o pain_n be_v very_a light_n when_o the_o motion_n it_o be_v annex_v to_o be_v very_o languid_a because_o it_o be_v always_o proportion_v to_o the_o force_n of_o the_o motion_n that_o be_v communicate_v to_o the_o chief_a part_n of_o the_o brain_n second_o that_o be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o motion_n to_o include_v a_o succession_n of_o time_n and_o it_o can_v be_v violent_a at_o the_o first_o instant_n of_o its_o communication_n which_o be_v suppose_v it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o first_o man_n never_o feel_v a_o violent_a surprise_v pain_n that_o be_v capable_a to_o make_v he_o miserable_a because_o he_o can_v put_v a_o stop_n to_o the_o motion_n that_o cause_v it_o but_o if_o so_o be_v he_o can_v effectual_o stop_v they_o at_o the_o first_o

sense_n of_o pain_n adam_n therefore_o never_o suffer_v any_o violent_a pain_n but_o i_o think_v we_o be_v not_o oblige_v to_o say_v that_o he_o never_o feel_v any_o light_n and_o inconsiderable_a

to_o avoid_v for_o the_o preservation_n of_o his_o life_n objection_n against_o the_o five_o article_n adam_n feel_v prevent_v pleasure_n but_o these_o be_v involuntary_a motion_n therefore_o adam_n be_v agitate_a with_o involuntary_a motion_n answer_n i_o answer_v that_o adam_n sensation_n precede_v his_o reason_n the_o proof_n i_o have_v show_v for_o it_o in_o the_o four_o article_n but_o i_o
