that_o which_o it_o have_v from_o he_o independent_a of_o the_o body_n the_o only_a inconvenience_n that_o will_v natural_o result_v from_o the_o distinction_n of_o these_o two_o thing_n thus_o

body_n so_o that_o according_a to_o the_o first_o rule_n i_o must_v ask_v of_o which_o of_o these_o motion_n it_o be_v that_o they_o will_v know_v the_o cause_n but_o if_o the_o question_n be_v leave_v indeterminate_a so_o that_o i_o may_v make_v use_n of_o any_o i_o shall_v choose_v i_o will_v examine_v the_o question_n after_o this_o manner_n and_o first_o consider_v the_o property_n of_o

oblige_v myself_o therefore_o first_o to_o consider_v voluntary_a motion_n and_o because_o we_o have_v many_o part_n which_o concur_v to_o this_o motion_n i_o will_v first_o consider_v the_o arm_n as_o compose_v of_o many_o muscle_n which_o have_v general_o some_o action_n when_o we_o lift_v a_o weight_n up_o or_o when_o we_o different_o move_v body_n but_o i_o keep_v only_o to_o one_o suppose_v the_o rest_n to_o be_v form_v very_o near_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n i_o instruct_v myself_o of_o its_o composition_n by_o the_o help_n of_o some_o book_n of_o anatomy_n or_o rather_o by_o a_o sensible_a sight_n of_o its_o fibre_n and_o tendon_n which_o i_o get_v some_o able_a anatomist_n to_o dissect_v for_o i_o to_o who_o i_o make_v all_o the_o demand_n which_o shall_v afterward_o produce_v in_o my_o mind_n some_o method_n for_o i_o to_o find_v what_o i_o seek_v consider_v therefore_o all_o thing_n attentive_o i_o can_v doubt_v but_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o my_o arm_n depend_v upon_o the_o contraction_n of_o the_o muscle_n which_o compose_v it_o and_o if_o i_o have_v not_o a_o mind_n to_o perplex_v myself_o with_o too_o many_o thing_n i_o may_v suppose_v according_a to_o the_o common_a opinion_n that_o this_o contraction_n be_v produce_v by_o the_o animal_n spirit_n which_o fill_v these_o muscle_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n shorten_v they_o the_o whole_a question_n then_o which_o respect_v voluntary_a motion_n will_v be_v reduce_v to_o know_v how_o the_o few_o animal_n spirit_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o a_o arm_n can_v sudden_o swell_v the_o muscle_n according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o the_o will_n with_o a_o sufficient_a force_n to_o lift_v a_o burden_n of_o a_o hundred_o weight_n or_o more_o when_o we_o consider_v this_o with_o any_o application_n the_o first_o mean_n that_o present_v itself_o to_o the_o imagination_n be_v common_o that_o of_o some_o violent_a and_o quick_a fermentation_n like_v to_o that_o of_o gunpowder_n or_o certain_a liquor_n fill_v with_o volatile_a salt_n when_o they_o be_v mix_v with_o those_o that_o be_v acid_n or_o full_a of_o fix_a salt_n a_o little_a gunpowder_n when_o light_v be_v capable_a of_o raise_v not_o only_o a_o hundred_o pound_v weight_n but_o a_o tower_n and_o even_o a_o mountain_n earthquake_n which_o overthrow_n town_n and_o shake_v whole_a province_n be_v also_o produce_v by_o spirit_n which_o be_v kindle_v under_o ground_n much_o like_a gunpowder_n thus_o suppose_v in_o the_o arm_n such_o a_o cause_n of_o the_o fermentation_n and_o dilatation_n of_o spirit_n we_o may_v say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o principle_n of_o the_o power_n that_o man_n have_v to_o perform_v such_o quick_a and_o violent_a motion_n however_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o distrust_v this_o mean_n which_o enter_v into_o the_o mind_n only_o by_o the_o sense_n and_o whereof_o we_o have_v no_o clear_a and_o evident_a knowledge_n we_o must_v not_o too_o easy_o admit_v of_o it_o for_o indeed_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o give_v a_o reason_n of_o the_o force_n and_o quickness_n of_o our_o motion_n by_o a_o comparison_n since_o this_o reason_n be_v confuse_v and_o imperfect_a for_o we_o must_v here_o explain_v a_o voluntary_a motion_n and_o fermentation_n be_v not_o voluntary_a the_o blood_n excessive_o ferment_n in_o fever_n and_o we_o can_v prevent_v it_o the_o spirit_n be_v inflame_v and_o agitate_a in_o the_o brain_n and_o their_o agitation_n diminish_v not_o according_a to_o our_o desire_n when_o a_o man_n move_v his_o arm_n after_o diverse_a way_n according_a to_o this_o explanation_n he_o must_v make_v a_o million_o of_o great_a and_o small_a quick_a and_o slow_a fermentation_n that_o begin_v and_o which_o be_v still_o more_o difficult_a to_o explain_v according_a to_o this_o supposition_n that_o end_n in_o the_o same_o moment_n he_o will_v it_o these_o fermentation_n must_v not_o dissipate_v all_o their_o matter_n and_o this_o matter_n must_v be_v

vast_a quantity_n of_o spirit_n will_v be_v require_v if_o fermentation_n shall_v dissipate_v and_o destroy_v they_o at_o every_o step._n this_o reason_n be_v therefore_o imperfect_a to_o explain_v the_o motion_n of_o our_o body_n which_o entire_o depend_v upon_o our_o will._n it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o present_a question_n consist_v in_o this_o mechanical_a problem_n by_o pneumatick_a

and_o that_o the_o application_n of_o this_o little_a force_n shall_v produce_v its_o desire_a effect_n and_o depend_v upon_o the_o will._n now_o this_o problem_n be_v easy_o resolve_v and_o the_o

to_o the_o great_a orifice_n but_o to_o resolve_v this_o problem_n by_o a_o machine_n which_o represent_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o muscle_n better_a than_o this_o instance_n already_o mention_v

examine_v respect_v natural_a motion_n or_o those_o sort_n of_o motion_n which_o have_v nothing_o extraordinary_a as_o the_o convulsive_a have_v but_o that_o be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o

be_v which_o have_v these_o condition_n and_o if_o they_o be_v whole_o alike_o but_o because_o i_o immediate_o discover_v that_o almost_o all_o of_o they_o differ_v one_o from_o another_o not_o to_o

very_a considerable_a cavity_n in_o it_o i_o therefore_o judge_v that_o its_o motion_n may_v be_v perform_v by_o the_o animal_n spirit_n because_o it_o be_v a_o muscle_n and_o that_o the_o blood_n there_o ferment_n and_o dilate_v its_o self_n since_o there_o be_v cavity_n there_o the_o first_o of_o these_o determination_n be_v found_v upon_o what_o i_o have_v already_o say_v and_o the_o second_o because_o the_o heart_n be_v much_o hot_a than_o all_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n as_o it_o be_v that_o which_o disperse_v heat_n with_o the_o blood_n into_o all_o our_o member_n that_o these_o two_o cavity_n can_v neither_o have_v be_v form_v nor_o preferve_v but_o only_o by_o the_o dilatation_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o that_o thus_o they_o be_v serviceable_a to_o the_o cause_n which_o produce_v they_o i_o can_v then_o give_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n for_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o spirit_n which_o agitate_v it_o and_o the_o blood_n which_o dilate_v it_o when_o this_o blood_n be_v ferment_v for_o although_o the_o cause_n i_o bring_v for_o its_o motion_n shall_v not_o perhaps_o be_v true_a yet_o it_o appear_v certain_a to_o i_o that_o

believe_v as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v elsewhere_o that_o body_n for_o instance_n have_v no_o power_n to_o move_v themselves_o and_o that_o their_o move_a power_n be_v only_o the_o action_n of_o god_n or_o to_o avoid_v a_o term_n which_o signify_v nothing_o distinct_a their_o move_a power_n be_v only_o the_o will_n of_o god_n always_o necessary_o efficacious_a which_o successive_o preserve_v they_o in_o different_a place_n for_o i_o do_v believe_v that_o god_n create_v certain_a being_n to_o make_v they_o the_o move_a power_n of_o body_n not_o only_o because_o i_o have_v no_o idea_n of_o this_o kind_n of_o be_v nor_o see_v how_o they_o can_v move_v body_n but_o also_o since_o these_o being_n will_v themselves_o have_v need_n of_o some_o other_o to_o move_v they_o and_o so_o on_o ad_fw-la infinitum_fw-la for_o none_o but_o god_n be_v true_o immovable_a and_o sole_a mover_n together_o which_o be_v suppose_v when_o a_o body_n strike_v and_o move_v another_o i_o may_v say_v that_o it_o act_n by_o the_o concourse_n of_o god_n and_o that_o this_o concourse_n be_v not_o distinct_a from_o its_o own_o action_n for_o a_o body_n move_v another_o which_o it_o meet_v only_o by_o its_o action_n or_o move_a power_n which_o at_o the_o bottom_n be_v nothing_o but_o the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o successive_o preserve_v this_o body_n in_o many_o place_n the_o transfer_v of_o a_o body_n not_o be_v its_o action_n or_o move_a power_n but_o the_o effect_n of_o its_o move_a power_n most_n divine_v likewise_o say_v that_o the_o action_n of_o second_o cause_n differ_v not_o from_o the_o action_n whereby_o god_n concur_v with_o they_o for_o although_o they_o understand_v it_o various_o they_o suppose_v that_o god_n act_n in_o the_o greature_n in_o the_o same_o action_n with_o the_o creature_n and_o they_o be_v it_o seem_v oblige_v to_o speak_v thus_o for_o if_o the_o creature_n act_v by_o a_o action_n which_o god_n do_v not_o produce_v in_o they_o their_o action_n consider_v as_o such_o will_v as_o it_o appear_v to_o i_o be_v independent_a now_o they_o believe_v as_o they_o ought_v that_o the_o creature_n depend_v immediate_o upon_o god_n not_o only_o as_o to_o their_o be_v but_o also_o as_o to_o their_o operation_n so_o in_o respect_n to_o free_a cause_n i_o believe_v that_o god_n continual_o give_v the_o mind_n a_o impression_n towards_o good_a in_o general_n and_o that_o he_o also_o determine_v this_o impression_n towards_o particular_a good_n by_o the_o idea_n or_o sensation_n he_o have_v give_v we_o as_o i_o have_v show_v in_o the_o first_o

our_o mind_n in_o motion_n be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o animate_v and_o incline_v we_o towards_o good_a for_o god_n create_v not_o being_n to_o make_v they_o the_o move_a power_n of_o mind_n for_o the_o same_o reason_n that_o he_o do_v not_o create_v any_o to_o make_v they_o the_o move_a power_n of_o body_n the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v efficacious_a of_o themselves_o it_o be_v enough_o for_o he_o to_o will_v a_o thing_n to_o have_v it_o do_v and_o it_o be_v useless_a unnecessary_o to_o multiply_v being_n beside_o whatever_o be_v real_a in_o the_o determination_n of_o our_o motion_n
