all_o body_n be_v matter_n matter_n be_v the_o only_a thing_n in_o my_o mind_n that_o we_o have_v any_o clear_a notion_n of_o if_o we_o have_v of_o any_o we_o conceive_v very_o well_o that_o a_o

and_o since_o we_o consider_v a_o real_a space_n between_o they_o we_o can_v mental_o divide_v it_o into_o several_a lesser_a space_n and_o each_o lesser_a space_n into_o as_o many_o other_o lesser_a one_o as_o we_o please_v so_o that_o every_o minute_n particle_n will_v be_v infinite_o divisible_a beside_o the_o distance_n between_o the_o six_o side_n of_o the_o atom_n be_v so_o fill_v up_o and_o

between_o one_o piece_n of_o matter_n and_o another_o since_o all_o matter_n be_v extend_v divisible_a and_o impenetrable_a but_o since_o the_o machine_n of_o the_o world_n be_v form_v of_o
