faculty_n in_o short_a why_o may_v not_o the_o universe_n real_o be_v body_n and_o soul_n and_o every_o particular_a animal_n as_o a_o part_n thereof_o be_v organ_n and_o faculty_n in_o the_o same_o

this_o be_v certain_a that_o what_o in_o animal_n and_o particular_o in_o a_o man_n we_o do_v common_o call_v a_o faculty_n be_v neither_o that_o which_o common_o be_v call_v the_o soul_n nor_o be_v

soul_n and_o body_n as_o arise_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o such_o a_o particular_a part_n or_o organ_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o like_a be_v to_o be_v say_v of_o other_o

of_o whole_n and_o this_o without_o the_o supposal_n of_o any_o thing_n else_o for_o example_n that_o the_o eye_n can_v see_v apart_o the_o ear_n hear_v apart_o and_o the_o tongue_n taste_v apart_o from_o the_o body_n there_o will_v to_o all_o appearance_n be_v so_o many_o several_a animal_n and_o consequent_o so_o many_o several_a soul_n so_o that_o what_o be_v call_v a_o faculty_n only_o while_o it_o be_v in_o a_o part_n be_v denominate_v a_o soul_n in_o the_o whole_a and_o then_o where_o the_o body_n be_v a_o compage_fw-la or_o system_v of_o organ_n the_o soul_n must_v be_v a_o system_fw-la of_o faculty_n and_o yet_o be_v one_o still_o in_o the_o same_o sense_n as_o the_o body_n be_v but_o here_o i_o must_v expect_v it_o shall_v be_v tell_v i_o that_o the_o true_a and_o common_o receive_v notion_n of_o a_o soul_n be_v that_o it_o be_v the_o principle_n of_o the_o faculty_n call_v vital_a and_o animal_n and_o not_o any_o one_o of_o they_o itself_o or_o any_o system_fw-la of_o they_o all_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v indeed_o the_o popular_a and_o common_a notion_n but_o how_o true_a it_o be_v and_o how_o much_o adjust_v to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o soul_n can_v be_v understand_v but_o by_o make_v some_o distinction_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o word_n soul_n the_o word_n soul_n may_v be_v take_v two_o way_n the_o one_o of_o which_o i_o will_v call_v the_o philosophical_a the_o other_o the_o popular_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n first_o then_o word_n soul_n may_v be_v take_v philosophical_o as_o a_o name_n of_o all_o the_o cause_n together_o that_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o produce_v of_o vital_a and_o animal_n action_n in_o the_o several_a species_n of_o animal_n and_o so_o though_o it_o be_v common_o consider_v as_o if_o it_o be_v some_o substantial_a thing_n that_o differ_v from_o they_o all_o yet_o indeed_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o modification_n of_o their_o action_n as_o they_o be_v all_o in_o conjunction_n and_o dicearchus_n who_o affirm_v there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o soul_n if_o he_o mean_v but_o thus_o be_v very_o excusable_a for_o in_o this_o sense_n a_o soul_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o result_n that_o be_v a_o mode_n of_o conceive_v for_o this_o i_o mean_v by_o result_n of_o all_o the_o cause_n that_o must_v be_v join_v for_o animal_n or_o vital_a action_n as_o they_o do_v either_o qualify_v or_o else_o aid_n each_o other_o influence_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n as_o a_o soul_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o action_n of_o a_o particular_a organ_n may_v be_v call_v a_o faculty_n so_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n a_o soul_n be_v a_o system_fw-la of_o faculty_n thus_o life_n in_o animal_n arise_v from_o the_o concurrence_n of_o many_o thing_n which_o thing_n therefore_o in_o that_o concurrence_n as_o they_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o life_n so_o they_o may_v be_v call_v the_o soul_n for_o by_o soul_n be_v mean_v nothing_o but_o the_o principle_n of_o that_o we_o call_v the_o life_n if_o one_o of_o these_o be_v want_v that_o be_v necessary_a the_o life_n cease_v and_o we_o say_v the_o soul_n be_v go_v but_o then_o again_o suppose_v all_o the_o

the_o first_o objection_n against_o this_o hypothesis_n be_v that_o it_o speak_v of_o soul_n as_o of_o faculty_n or_o power_n and_o not_o as_o of_o thing_n that_o be_v essential_o active_a whereas_o a_o soul_n be_v a_o knowledge_n a_o cogitation_n or_o at_o least_o a_o thing_n that_o be_v always_o busy_a and_o do_v insomuch_o that_o even_o in_o sleep_n it_o do_v not_o all_o rest_n but_o that_o

with_o so_o many_o groundless_a fantastic_a opinion_n but_o to_o come_v near_o the_o matter_n i_o know_v a_o person_n who_o affirm_v that_o to_o his_o knowledge_n he_o never_o dream_v in_o his_o whole_a life_n and_o certain_o since_o we_o be_v always_o conscious_a that_o we_o dream_v when_o ever_o we_o do_v we_o ought_v to_o believe_v we_o have_v not_o dream_v at_o all_o when_o we_o be_v

the_o mind_n or_o understanding_n be_v a_o organical_a thing_n as_o well_o as_o the_o external_n sense_n i_o see_v no_o reason_n to_o think_v but_o that_o as_o there_o be_v no_o actual_a sensation_n

there_o be_v no_o actual_a intellection_n but_o when_o that_o of_o the_o understanding_n be_v and_o that_o though_o we_o have_v always_o the_o power_n of_o understanding_n as_o we_o have_v that_o of_o

the_o last_o i_o shall_v propose_v be_v the_o herculean_a one_o that_o be_v insist_v upon_o by_o many_o great_a and_o very_o judicious_a man_n which_o be_v that_o if_o there_o be_v but_o one_o original_a perceptive_a throughout_o the_o universe_n all_o animal_n will_v have_v the_o same_o perception_n so_o that_o what_o be_v know_v by_o one_o can_v be_v ignore_v by_o none_o ay_o the_o same_o sentiment_n the_o same_o resentment_n the_o same_o pain_n the_o same_o pleasure_n that_o be_v in_o any_o one_o will_v be_v in_o every_o one_o and_o there_o can_v be_v no_o numerication_n no_o individuation_n of_o spirit_n or_o soul_n because_o no_o separate_a particular_a perception_n but_o this_o objection_n as_o it_o be_v great_a in_o appearance_n than_o in_o reality_n so_o it_o can_v have_v little_a effect_n if_o we_o consider_v that_o it_o do_v equal_o destroy_v the_o diversity_n of_o perception_n in_o the_o several_a organ_n and_o part_n of_o one_o animal_n which_o yet_o our_o own_o experience_n atte_v unto_o as_o that_o of_o the_o perception_n of_o several_a animal_n in_o the_o universe_n since_o as_o there_o be_v but_o one_o original_a perceptive_a throughout_o the_o universe_n in_o the_o propose_a opinion_n so_o in_o the_o common_a there_o be_v but_o one_o in_o every_o animal_n and_o yet_o though_o the_o soul_n be_v but_o one_o the_o faculty_n be_v many_o and_o the_o exercise_n of_o they_o several_a for_o if_o but_o one_o eye_n be_v inflame_v the_o sense_n of_o pain_n be_v not_o in_o both_o and_o when_o but_o one_o arm_n or_o one_o hand_n be_v wound_v the_o smart_n thereof_o be_v only_o in_o one_o ay_o the_o pain_n and_o ailment_n of_o the_o superior_a part_n be_v not_o feel_v in_o the_o inferior_a nor_o the_o sufferance_n of_o these_o in_o those_o so_o that_o though_o the_o animal_n itself_o may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v the_o perception_n of_o all_o those_o of_o its_o several_a part_n yet_o these_o can_v be_v true_o say_v to_o have_v one_o another_o i_o acknowledge_v that_o as_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v a_o common_a sense_n of_o all_o perception_n but_o the_o several_a member_n each_o to_o have_v but_o a_o private_a sense_n for_o itself_o so_o answerable_o though_o the_o original_a perceptive_a be_v sensible_a of_o all_o and_o needs_o must_v for_o he_o that_o make_v the_o eye_n must_v needs_o see_v and_o he_o that_o plant_v the_o ear_n must_v needs_o hear_v and_o he_o that_o give_v a_o heart_n unto_o man_n must_v needs_o understand_v yet_o particular_a percipient_n particular_a animal_n as_o so_o many_o particular_a organ_n must_v have_v but_o their_o share_n one_o animal_n can_v no_o more_o pretend_v to_o have_v the_o perception_n of_o another_o though_o the_o original_a perceptive_a be_v the_o same_o in_o both_o and_o be_v conscious_a to_o the_o perception_n of_o both_o than_o in_o the_o same_o animal_n the_o eye_n can_v pretend_v to_o hear_v or_o the_o ear_n to_o see_v or_o either_o of_o they_o to_o smell_v hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o individuation_n and_o numerication_n of_o perception_n and_o consequent_o of_o perceptive_a power_n arise_v from_o the_o body_n or_o organ_n by_o

of_o such_o organ_n be_v likewise_o so_o in_o short_a as_o i_o hint_v before_o perception_n and_o perceptive_a power_n be_v individuate_v by_o body_n in_o the_o same_o way_n as_o image_n be_v by_o
