otherwise_o neither_o of_o they_o have_v power_n nor_o can_v the_o accident_n which_o be_v in_o they_o several_o be_v proper_o call_v power_n nor_o any_o action_n be_v say_v to_o be_v possible_a for_o the_o power_n of_o the_o agent_n alone_o or_o of_o the_o patient_n alone_o 4_o for_o that_o be_v a_o impossible_a act_n for_o the_o production_n of_o which_o there_o be_v no_o power_n plenary_a for_o see_v plenary_a power_n be_v that_o in_o which_o all_o thing_n concur_v which_o be_v requisite_a for_o the_o production_n of_o a_o act_n if_o the_o power_n shall_v never_o be_v plenary_a there_o will_v always_o be_v want_v some_o of_o those_o thing_n without_o which_o the_o act_n can_v be_v produce_v wherefore_o that_o act_n shall_v never_o be_v produce_v that_o be_v that_o act_n be_v

never_o be_v produce_v than_o those_o thing_n shall_v never_o concur_v which_o be_v requisite_a for_o the_o production_n of_o it_o wherefore_o that_o act_n be_v impossible_a by_o the_o definition_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o what_o be_v suppose_v 5_o a_o necessary_a act_n be_v that_o the_o production_n whereof_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o hinder_v and_o therefore_o every_o act_n that_o

at_o some_o time_n be_v produce_v nay_o this_o proposition_n what_o shall_v be_v shall_v be_v be_v as_o necessary_a a_o proposition_n as_o this_o a_o man_n be_v a_o man._n but_o here_o perhaps_o some_o man_n may_v ask_v whether_o those_o future_a thing_n which_o be_v common_o call_v contingent_n be_v necessary_a i_o say_v therefore_o that_o general_o all_o contingent_n have_v their_o necessary_a cause_n as_o be_v show_v in_o the_o precede_a chapter_n but_o be_v call_v contingent_n in_o respect_n of_o other_o event_n upon_o which_o they_o do_v not_o depend_v as_o the_o rain_n which_o shall_v be_v to_o morrow_n shall_v be_v necessary_o that_o be_v from_o necessary_a cause_n but_o we_o think_v and_o say_v it_o happen_v by_o chance_n because_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o perceive_v the_o cause_n thereof_o though_o they_o exist_v now_o for_o man_n common_o call_v that_o casual_a or_o contingent_a whereof_o they_o do_v not_o perceive_v the_o necessary_a cause_n and_o in_o the_o

true_a or_o necessary_o false_a but_o we_o call_v they_o contingent_a because_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o know_v whether_o they_o be_v true_a or_o false_a whereas_o their_o verity_n depend_v not_o upon_o our_o knowledge_n but_o upon_o the_o forego_n of_o their_o cause_n but_o there_o be_v some_o who_o though_o they_o confess_v this_o whole_a proposition_n to_o morrow_n it_o will_v either_o rain_n or_o not_o rain_n to_o be_v true_a yet_o they_o will_v not_o acknowledge_v the_o part_n of_o it_o as_o to_z morrow_n it_o will_v rain_v or_o to_o morrow_n it_o will_v not_o rain_v to_o be_v either_o of_o

have_v show_v that_o the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o all_o motion_n and_o mutation_n consist_v in_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o agent_n or_o agent_n and_o in_o the_o first_o article_n of_o this_o chapter_n that_o the_o power_n of_o the_o agent_n be_v the_o same_o thing_n with_o the_o efficient_a cause_n from_o whence_o it_o may_v be_v understand_v that_o all_o active_a power_n consist_v in_o

because_o another_o act_n shall_v be_v produce_v by_o it_o afterward_o for_o example_n if_o of_o three_o body_n the_o first_o put_v forward_o the_o second_o and_o this_o the_o three_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o second_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o first_o which_o produce_v it_o be_v the_o act_n of_o the_o second_o body_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o three_o it_o be_v the_o active_a power_n of_o the_o same_o second_o body_n 7_o the_o writer_n of_o metaphysic_n reckon_v up_o two_o other_o cause_n beside_o the_o efficient_a and_o material_a namely_o the_o essence_n which_o some_o call_v the_o formal_a cause_n and_o the_o end_n or_o final_a cause_n both_o which_o be_v nevertheless_o efficient_a cause_n for_o when_o it_o be_v say_v the_o essence_n of_o a_o thing_n be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o as_o to_o be_v rational_a be_v the_o cause_n of_o man_n it_o be_v not_o intelligible_a for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o man_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o man_n which_o be_v not_o well_o say_v and_o yet_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o essence_n of_o any_o thing_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o for_o if_o i_o first_o know_v that_o a_o thing_n be_v rational_a i_o know_v from_o thence_o that_o the_o same_o be_v man_n but_o this_o be_v no_o
not_o a_o sufficient_a cause_n of_o their_o future_a motion_n there_o be_v no_o other_o cause_n of_o motion_n but_o motion_n the_o cause_n therefore_o of_o such_o restitution_n be_v in_o the_o part_n of_o the_o steel_n itself_o wherefore_o while_o it_o remain_v bend_v there_o be_v in_o the_o part_n of_o which_o it_o consist_v some_o motion_n though_o invisible_a that_o be_v to_o say_v some_o

part_n by_o which_o this_o be_v do_v be_v that_o which_o i_o call_v simple_a motion_n or_o motion_n return_v into_o itself_o when_o therefore_o in_o the_o bend_n of_o a_o plate_n the_o end_n be_v

other_o side_n a_o divulsion_n of_o the_o part_n the_o endeavour_n therefore_o of_o the_o part_n on_o one_o side_n tend_v to_o the_o restitution_n of_o the_o plate_n from_o the_o middle_n towards_o the_o end_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n from_o the_o end_n towards_o the_o middle_n wherefore_o the_o impediment_n be_v take_v away_o this_o endeavour_n which_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o

by_o the_o application_n of_o very_a sensible_a force_n wherefore_o the_o fluid_a substance_n which_o be_v enclose_v and_o so_o move_v have_v some_o degree_n of_o hardness_n now_o great_a and_o less_o degree_n of_o hardness_n depend_v upon_o the_o quantity_n and_o velocity_n of_o those_o small_a body_n and_o upon_o the_o narrowness_n of_o the_o place_n both_o together_o 11_o such_o thing_n as_o

the_o cause_n of_o both_o these_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v seek_v for_o in_o the_o situation_n of_o the_o reflect_a body_n as_o be_v usual_o do_v in_o sight_n for_o the_o law_n of_o reflection_n be_v

and_o the_o loadstone_n but_o that_o which_o trouble_v man_n most_o be_v the_o loadstone_n which_o be_v also_o call_v lapis_fw-la herculeus_fw-la a_o stone_n though_o otherwise_o despicable_a yet_o of_o so_o great_a power_n that_o it_o take_v up_o iron_n from_o the_o earth_n and_o hold_v it_o suspend_v in_o the_o air_n as_o hercules_n do_v antaeus_n nevertheless_o we_o wonder_v at_o it_o somewhat_o the_o less_o because_o we_o see_v jet_n draw_v up_o straw_n which_o be_v heavy_a body_n though_o not_o so_o heavy_a as_o iron_n but_o as_o for_o jet_n it_o must_v first_o be_v excite_v by_o

principle_n of_o motion_n peculiar_a to_o itself_o now_o whatsoever_o be_v move_v be_v move_v by_o some_o contiguous_a and_o move_v body_n as_o have_v be_v former_o demonstrate_v and_o from_o hence_o it_o follow_v evident_o that_o the_o first_o endeavour_n which_o iron_n have_v towards_o the_o loadstone_n be_v cause_v by_o the_o motion_n of_o that_o air_n which_o be_v contiguous_a to_o the_o iron_n also_o that_o this_o motion_n be_v generate_v by_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o next_o air_n and_o so_o on_o successive_o till_o by_o this_o succession_n we_o find_v that_o the_o motion_n of_o all_o the_o intermediate_v air_n take_v its_o beginning_n from_o some_o motion_n which_o be_v in_o the_o loadstone_n itself_o which_o motion_n because_o the_o loadstone_n seem_v to_o be_v at_o rest_n be_v invisible_a it_o be_v therefore_o certain_a that_o the_o attractive_a power_n of_o the_o loadstone_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o some_o motion_n of_o the_o small_a particle_n thereof_o suppose_v therefore_o that_o those_o small_a body_n of_o which_o the_o loadstone_n be_v in_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o earth_n compose_v have_v by_o nature_n such_o motion_n or_o endeavour_v as_o be_v above_o attribute_v to_o jet_v namely_o a_o reciprocal_a motion_n in_o a_o line_n too_o short_a to_o be_v see_v both_o those_o stone_n will_v have_v one_o &_o the_o same_o cause_n of_o attraction_n now_o in_o what_o manner_n and_o in_o what_o order_n of_o work_v this_o cause_n produce_v the_o effect_n of_o attraction_n be_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v inquire_v and_o first_o we_o know_v that_o when_o the_o string_n of_o a_o lute_n or_o viol._n be_v strike_v the_o vibration_n that_o be_v the_o reciprocal_a motion_n of_o that_o string_n in_o the_o same_o straight_a line_n cause_v like_o vibration_n in_o another_o string_n which_o have_v like_o tension_n we_o know_v also_o that_o the_o dregs_o or_o small_a sand_n which_o sink_v to_o the_o bottom_n of_o a_o vessel_n will_v be_v raise_v up_o from_o the_o bottom_n by_o any_o strong_a and_o reciprocal_a agitation_n of_o the_o water_n stir_v with_o the_o hand_n or_o with_o a_o staff_n why_o therefore_o shall_v not_o reciprocal_a motion_n of_o the_o part_n of_o the_o loadstone_n contribute_v as_o much_o towards_o the_o move_n of_o iron_n for_o if_o in_o the_o loadstone_n there_o be_v suppose_v such_o reciprocal_a motion_n or_o motion_n of_o the_o part_n forward_o and_o backward_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o like_a motion_n will_v be_v propagate_v by_o the_o air_n to_o the_o iron_n and_o consequent_o that_o there_o will_v be_v in_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o iron_n the_o same_o reciprocation_n or_o motion_n forward_o and_o backward_o and_o from_o hence_o also_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o intermediate_v air_n between_o the_o

come_v together_o the_o possible_a cause_n therefore_o why_o the_o loadstone_n and_o jet_n draw_v to_o they_o the_o one_o iron_n the_o other_o straw_n may_v be_v this_o that_o those_o attract_v body_n have_v reciprocal_a motion_n either_o in_o a_o straight_a line_n or_o in_o a_o elliptical_a line_n when_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o attract_a body_n which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o such_o a_o motion_n but_o why_o the_o loadstone_n if_o with_o the_o help_n of_o cork_n it_o float_v at_o liberty_n upon_o the_o top_n of_o the_o water_n shall_v from_o any_o

of_o the_o earth_n shall_v at_o all_o other_o time_n respect_v the_o same_o pole_n the_o cause_n may_v be_v this_o that_o the_o reciprocal_a motion_n which_o i_o suppose_v to_o be_v in_o the_o part_n of_o the_o stone_n be_v make_v in_o a_o line_n parallel_n to_o the_o axis_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o have_v be_v in_o those_o part_n ever_o since_o the_o stone_n be_v generate_v see_v therefore_o the_o stone_n while_o it_o remain_v in_o the_o mine_n and_o be_v carry_v about_o together_o with_o the_o earth_n by_o its_o diurnal_a motion_n do_v by_o length_n of_o time_n get_v a_o habit_n of_o

and_o nothing_o intervening_a that_n may_v hinder_v the_o same_o the_o loadstone_n will_v therefore_o return_v to_o its_o former_a situation_n for_o any_o piece_n of_o iron_n that_o have_v for_o a_o

one_o another_o and_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o former_a may_v be_v this_o that_o iron_n be_v touch_v by_o motion_n which_o be_v not_o reciprocal_a but_o draw_v the_o same_o way_n from_o pole_n to_o
