especial_o it_o be_v knowil_n that_o natural_a philosophy_n be_v the_o hard_a of_o all_o humane_a learning_n by_o reason_n it_o consist_v only_o in_o contemplation_n and_o to_o make_v the_o

it_o for_o learning_n be_v artificial_a but_o wit_n be_v natural_a wherefore_o when_o i_o begin_v to_o read_v the_o philosophical_a work_n
from_o the_o real_a the_o mechanical_a the_o experimental_a philosophy_n which_o have_v this_o advantage_n over_o the_o philosophy_n of_o discourse_n and_o disputation_n that_o whereas_o that_o

memory_n so_o this_o intend_v the_o right_a order_n of_o they_o all_o and_o make_v they_o serviceable_a to_o each_o other_o in_o which_o discourse_n i_o do_v not_o understand_v first_o what_o they_o mean_v by_o our_o power_n over_o natural_a cause_n and_o effect_n for_o we_o have_v no_o power_n at_o all_o over_o natural_a cause_n and_o effect_n but_o only_o one_o particular_a effect_n may_v have_v some_o power_n over_o another_o which_o be_v natural_a action_n but_o neither_o can_v natural_a cause_n nor_o effect_n be_v overpowred_n by_o man_n so_o as_o if_o man_n be_v a_o degree_n above_o nature_n but_o they_o must_v be_v as_o nature_n be_v please_v to_o order_v they_o for_o man_n be_v but_o a_o small_a part_n and_o his_o power_n be_v but_o particular_a action_n of_o nature_n and_o therefore_o he_o can_v have_v a_o supreme_a and_o absolute_a power_n next_o i_o say_v that_o sense_n which_o be_v more_o apt_a to_o be_v delude_v then_o reason_n can_v be_v the_o ground_n of_o reason_n no_o more_o than_o art_n can_v be_v the_o ground_n of_o nature_n wherefore_o discourse_n shall_v soon_o find_v or_o trace_v nature_n corporeal_a figurative_a motion_n than_o delude_a art_n can_v inform_v the_o sense_n for_o how_o can_v a_o fool_n order_v his_o understanding_n by_o art_n if_o nature_n have_v make_v it_o defective_a or_o how_o can_v a_o wise_a man_n trust_v his_o sense_n if_o either_o the_o object_n be_v not_o true_o present_v according_a to_o their_o natural_a figure_n and_o shape_n or_o if_o the_o sense_n be_v defective_a either_o through_o age_n sickness_n or_o other_o accident_n which_o do_v alter_v the_o natural_a motion_n proper_a to_o each_o sense_n and_o hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o experimental_a and_o mechanic_n philosophy_n can_v be_v above_o the_o speculative_a part_n by_o reason_n most_o experiment_n have_v their_o rise_n from_o the_o speculative_a so_o that_o the_o artist_n or_o mechanic_n be_v but_o a_o servant_n to_o the_o student_n 3._o of_o micrography_n and_o of_o magnify_v and_o multiply_v glass_n although_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o give_v a_o solid_a judgement_n of_o the_o art_n of_o micrography_n and_o the_o several_a

though_o most_o philosopher_n be_v of_o opinion_n that_o element_n be_v simple_a body_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v compose_v of_o they_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o way_n probable_a to_o reason_n because_o they_o consist_v of_o the_o same_o matter_n as_o other_o body_n do_v and_o be_v all_o but_o effect_n of_o one_o cause_n or_o principle_n which_o be_v infinite_a matter_n next_o that_o nature_n be_v full_a of_o daemon_n or_o spiritual_a substance_n be_v against_o sense_n and_o reason_n for_o what_o be_v incorporeal_a be_v no_o part_n of_o nature_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n the_o soul_n can_v be_v immaterial_a although_o he_o make_v she_o to_o be_v a_o self-moving_a nature_n for_o what_o have_v a_o natural_a motion_n have_v also_o a_o natural_a body_n because_o matter_n and_o

one_o i_o do_v willing_o grant_v it_o if_o by_o the_o world_n he_o do_v mean_a nature_n but_o than_o it_o can_v be_v finite_a but_o thales_n seem_v to_o contradict_v himself_o in_o this_o theorem_a when_o as_o he_o grant_v that_o body_n be_v divisible_a in_o infinite_a for_o if_o there_o be_v infinite_a action_n as_o infinite_a division_n in_o nature_n then_o sure_o the_o body_n of_o nature_n itself_o must_v be_v infinite_a next_o he_o say_v that_o god_n be_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o world_n which_o if_o so_o god_n be_v infinite_a he_o can_v have_v a_o finite_a body_n to_o animate_v it_o for_o a_o finite_a body_n and_o a_o infinite_a soul_n do_v never_o agree_v together_o but_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o world_n no_o regular_a reason_n can_v allow_v because_o

fold_n contemplative_a and_o active_a and_o that_o contemplation_n be_v a_o office_n of_o the_o intellect_n but_o action_n a_o operation_n of_o the_o rational_a soul_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o i_o know_v no_o other_o difference_n between_o intellect_n and_o reason_n but_o that_o intellect_n be_v a_o effect_n or_o rather_o a_o essential_a propriety_n of_o reason_n if_o reason_n be_v the_o principle_n of_o nature_n for_o the_o rational_a part_n be_v the_o most_o intelligent_a part_n of_o animate_v matter_n next_o i_o say_v that_o contemplation_n be_v as_o much_o a_o action_n as_o any_o other_o action_n of_o nature_n although_o it_o be_v not_o so_o gross_a as_o the_o action_n of_o the_o body_n for_o it_o be_v only_o a_o action_n of_o the_o mind_n which_o be_v more_o pure_a and_o subtle_a then_o either_o the_o sensitive_a or_o inanimate_a part_n of_o matter_n be_v and_o act_n within_o itself_o that_o be_v in_o its_o own_o substance_n or_o degree_n of_o matter_n 2._o he_o say_v that_o sense_n be_v a_o passion_n of_o the_o soul_n i_o answer_v there_o be_v as_o much_o difference_n between_o sense_n and_o the_o soul_n as_o there_o be_v between_o sense_n and_o reason_n or_o a_o sensitive_a life_n and_o a_o rational_a soul_n for_o the_o rational_a part_n of_o matter_n be_v not_o the_o sensitive_a nor_o the_o sensitive_a the_o rational_a a_o fool_n may_v have_v his_o sense_n regular_a and_o his_o reason_n irregular_a and_o therefore_o sense_n and_o reason_n be_v not_o one_o and_o the_o same_o although_o they_o have_v a_o inseparable_a communion_n in_o the_o body_n or_o substance_n of_o nature_n 3._o he_o argue_v thus_o that_o which_o move_v in_o itself_o as_o be_v the_o principle_n of_o motion_n in_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v move_v be_v always_o move_v and_o consequent_o immortal_a ungenerable_a and_o incorruptible_a but_o the_o soul_n be_v so_o ergo_fw-la etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v natural_a matter_n be_v thus_o self-moving_a be_v the_o same_o 4._o from_o say_v he_o be_v join_v to_o matter_n i_o answer_v form_n and_o matter_n be_v but_o one_o thing_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o separate_v matter_n from_o form_n or_o form_n from_o matter_n but_o what_o be_v not_o dividable_a be_v not_o composable_a and_o what_o can_v be_v separate_v can_v be_v join_v 5._o quality_n say_v he_o be_v incorporeal_a because_o they_o be_v accident_n i_o answer_v if_o quality_n be_v incorporeal_a they_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o nature_n for_o since_o the_o principle_n of_o nature_n be_v matter_n all_o that_o be_v natural_a must_v also_o be_v material_a or_o corporeal_a and_o therefore_o all_o natural_a quality_n or_o accident_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v corporeal_a by_o reason_n quality_n can_v no_o more_o be_v divide_v from_o matter_n than_o figure_n magnitude_n colour_n place_n and_o the_o like_a all_o which_o be_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o with_o body_n without_o any_o separation_n or_o abstraction_n 6._o what_o plato_n affirm_v of_o that_o which_o never_o be_v and_o never_o have_v a_o beginning_n and_o of_o that_o which_o have_v a_o beginning_n and_o not_o a_o be_v be_v more_o than_o he_o or_o any_o body_n can_v rational_o prove_v for_o what_o never_o be_v nor_o be_v no_o man_n can_v know_v or_o imagine_v because_o all_o what_o be_v know_v or_o imagine_v have_v its_o real_a be_v if_o not_o without_o yet_o within_o the_o mind_n and_o all_o thought_n have_v not_o only_o a_o be_v but_o a_o material_a be_v in_o nature_n nay_o even_o the_o thought_n of_o the_o existence_n of_o a_o deity_n although_o deity_n itself_o be_v immaterial_a 7._o i_o wonder_v so_o witty_a a_o philosopher_n as_o plato_n can_v believe_v that_o matter_n in_o itself_o as_o it_o be_v the_o principle_n of_o nature_n be_v void_a of_o all_o form_n for_o he_o affirm_v himself_o that_o whatsoever_o have_v part_n have_v also_o figure_n but_o matter_n
neutral_a being_n which_o be_v between_o body_n and_o no_o body_n which_o be_v a_o paradox_n to_o regular_a reason_n the_o cyrenaic_a sect_n affirm_v that_o all_o body_n be_v of_o a_o incomprehensible_a nature_n but_o i_o be_o not_o of_o their_o opinion_n for_o although_o the_o interior_a corporeal_a figurative_a motion_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o every_o creature_n perception_n yet_o in_o nature_n they_o be_v not_o incomprehensible_a as_o for_o example_n the_o five_o sense_n in_o man_n be_v both_o know_v and_o ignorant_a not_o only_o of_o each_o other_o perception_n but_o of_o the_o several_a part_n of_o exterior_a object_n for_o the_o eye_n only_o perceive_v the_o exterior_a figure_n magnitude_n and_o colour_n and_o not_o the_o nose_n the_o nose_n perceive_v its_o scent_n but_o not_o its_o colour_n and_o magnitude_n the_o ear_n perceive_v neither_o its_o magnitude_n colour_n nor_o scent_n but_o only_o its_o sound_n and_o so_o forth_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o infinite_a perceptive_a part_n of_o nature_n whereby_o they_o be_v both_o obscure_v and_o discover_v to_o particular_n and_o so_o may_v be_v true_o know_v in_o general_a but_o not_o in_o particular_a by_o any_o finite_a creature_n or_o part_n of_o nature_n the_o academic_n say_v that_o some_o fancy_n be_v credible_a other_o incredible_a and_o of_o those_o that_o be_v credible_a some_o be_v credible_a only_o and_o some_o credible_a and_o circumcurrent_fw-la as_o for_o example_n a_o rope_n lie_v loose_o in_o a_o dark_a room_n a_o man_n receive_v a_o credible_a fancy_n from_o it_o and_o run_v away_o another_o consider_v it_o more_o exact_o and_o weigh_v the_o circumstance_n as_o that_o it_o move_v not_o that_o it_o be_v of_o such_o a_o colour_n and_o the_o like_a to_o he_o it_o appear_v a_o rope_n according_a to_o the_o credible_a and_o circumcurrent_fw-la fancy_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v a_o mistake_n be_v a_o irregularity_n of_o sense_n and_o sometime_o of_o reason_n too_o if_o sense_n be_v only_o mistake_v and_o not_o reason_n reason_n rectify_v sense_n and_o if_o reason_n be_v only_o mistake_v and_o not_o sense_n than_o sense_n rectify_v reason_n but_o when_o both_o sense_n and_o reason_n be_v mistake_v the_o irregularity_n do_v either_o last_o long_o or_o change_n into_o regularity_n by_o the_o information_n of_o some_o other_o circumstance_n and_o thing_n which_o may_v rectify_v sometime_o the_o irregular_a motion_n both_o of_o sense_n and_o reason_n that_o be_v the_o sensitive_a and_o rational_a motion_n of_o other_o part_n may_v rectify_v those_o irregularity_n i_o can_v make_v many_o more_o observation_n not_o only_o upon_o the_o aforementioned_a but_o several_a other_o of_o the_o ancient_a philosopher_n but_o my_o design_n be_v not_o to_o refute_v their_o opinion_n but_o as_o i_o mention_v in_o the_o beginning_n to_o show_v the_o difference_n between_o they_o and_o my_o own_o and_o by_o this_o we_o may_v see_v that_o irregularity_n do_v not_o only_o appear_v in_o our_o present_a age_n but_o have_v be_v also_o in_o time_n past_a nay_o ever_o since_o nature_n have_v be_v or_o else_o there_o will_v never_o have_v be_v such_o extravagant_a opinion_n concern_v the_o truth_n of_o nature_n but_o the_o chief_a which_o i_o observe_v be_v that_o most_o of_o the_o ancient_n make_v a_o commixture_n of_o natural_a and_o supernatural_a corporeal_a and_o incorporeal_a being_n and_o of_o animate_v and_o inanimate_a body_n some_o derive_v reason_n from_o fancy_n and_o some_o introduce_v neutral_a being_n which_o be_v neither_o corporeal_a nor_o incorporeal_a but_o between_o both_o especial_o they_o do_v make_v general_a principle_n of_o particular_a effect_n and_o abstract_a quality_n motion_n accident_n figure_n place_n magnitude_n etc._n etc._n from_o matter_n which_o cause_v so_o many_o confusion_n and_o difference_n in_o their_o opinion_n nor_o can_v it_o be_v otherwise_o because_o of_o the_o irregularity_n and_o division_n of_o nature_n corporeal_a action_n and_o most_o of_o our_o modern_n do_v either_o follow_v altogether_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o ancient_a philosopher_n put_v they_o

that_o it_o be_v but_o in_o vain_a to_o hinder_v all_o objection_n yet_o i_o will_v endeavour_v as_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o i_o to_o prevent_v such_o as_o may_v be_v occasion_v by_o the_o obscurity_n of_o my_o write_n no_o creature_n can_v be_v so_o perfect_a as_o not_o to_o commit_v error_n sometime_o and_o so_o may_v i_o in_o my_o philosophical_a work_n where_o the_o cause_n of_o natural_a

i_o have_v declare_v before_o for_o particular_a motion_n be_v but_o effect_n of_o self-moving_a matter_n but_o i_o call_v they_o principal_n because_o to_o our_o humane_a sense_n they_o seem_v to_o

internal_a beginning_n of_o they_o which_o set_v they_o a_o go_v as_o the_o prime_a wheel_n of_o a_o watch_n do_v the_o rest_n my_o opinion_n be_v that_o after_o this_o rate_n they_o can_v proper_o be_v call_v voluntary_a but_o be_v rather_o necessitate_v at_o least_o occasion_v by_o the_o mind_n or_o fancy_n for_o i_o oppose_v voluntary_a action_n to_o those_o that_o be_v occasion_v or_o force_v which_o voluntary_a action_n be_v make_v by_o the_o self-moving_a part_n by_o rote_n and_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n but_o occasion_v action_n be_v make_v by_o imitation_n although_o they_o be_v all_o self-action_n that_o be_v move_v by_o their_o own_o inherent_a self-motion_n when_o i_o say_v that_o animal_n by_o their_o shape_n be_v not_o 6._o tie_v or_o bind_v to_o any_o other_o

the_o animal_n figure_n be_v a_o single_a figure_n precise_v from_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o natural_a part_n or_o figure_n or_o from_o the_o body_n of_o nature_n and_o stand_v in_o no_o need_n either_o of_o nourishment_n or_o support_n but_o can_v subsist_v of_o itself_o without_o any_o respect_n or_o relation_n to_o other_o creature_n but_o i_o speak_v comparative_o that_o in_o comparison_n to_o vegetable_n or_o such_o like_a creature_n it_o be_v more_o free_a in_o its_o exterior_a progressive_a local_a motion_n than_o they_o which_o as_o we_o see_v be_v take_v out_o of_o

other_o part_n which_o vegetable_n can_v do_v nevertheless_o animal_n depend_v as_o much_o upon_o other_o part_n and_o creature_n as_o other_o depend_v on_o they_o both_o for_o nourishment_n and_o
