the_o operation_n of_o the_o understanding_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o inward_a superficies_n of_o a_o body_n that_o compass_n and_o immediate_o contain_v another_o which_o ordinary_o be_v

to_o this_o fleet_a and_o unremarkable_a superficies_n that_o may_v bring_v it_o to_o our_o acquaintance_n and_o for_o this_o end_n we_o may_v consider_v further_o that_o as_o this_o superficies_n

have_v change_v its_o place_n and_o be_v now_o no_o long_a where_o it_o be_v at_o the_o first_o and_o this_o change_n of_o place_n we_o call_v local_a motion_n to_o wit_n the_o depart_n of_o a_o body_n from_o that_o hollow_a superficies_n which_o enclose_v it_o and_o its_o change_v to_o another_o whereby_o it_o gain_v new_a respect_n to_o those_o part_n of_o the_o world_n that_o have_v or_o in_o some_o sort_n may_v seem_v to_o have_v immobility_n and_o fix_a stableness_n so_o as_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o substance_n of_o local_a motion_n consist_v in_o division_n and_o that_o the_o alteration_n of_o locality_n follow_v division_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o become_a like_a or_o unlike_a of_o one_o wall_n to_o another_o follow_v the_o action_n whereby_o one_o of_o

a_o body_n to_o its_o place_n have_v strain_v beyond_o their_o strength_n and_o grasp_v but_o a_o shadow_n which_o will_v appear_v yet_o more_o evident_a if_o they_o but_o mark_v well_o how_o

be_v divide_v must_v of_o necessity_n be_v notmany_a before_o it_o be_v divide_v now_o quantity_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o division_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o pure_o of_o itself_o and_o without_o any_o force_n or_o adjoin_v help_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v one_o wherever_o some_o outward_a agent_n do_v not_o introduce_v multiplicity_n upon_o it_o and_o whenever_o other_o thing_n work_v upon_o quantity_n as_o quantity_n it_o be_v not_o the_o nature_n and_o power_n of_o their_o operation_n to_o produce_v unity_n in_o it_o and_o make_v it_o one_o for_o it_o be_v already_o one_o but_o

the_o divider_n and_o that_o which_o be_v to_o be_v divide_v and_o therefore_o although_o we_o may_v seek_v cause_n why_o some_o one_o thing_n stick_v fast_a together_o than_o some_o other_o yet_o to_o ask_v absolute_o why_o a_o body_n stick_v together_o be_v prejudicial_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o quantity_n who_o essence_n be_v to_o have_v part_n stick_v together_o or_o rather_o to_o have_v

according_o if_o when_o we_o see_v a_o boul_a move_v we_o will_v examine_v the_o cause_n of_o that_o motion_n we_o must_v consider_v the_o quantity_n of_o air_n or_o water_n it_o make_v to_o break_v

what_o force_n the_o boul_a needs_o to_o have_v for_o its_o motion_n thus_o have_v declare_v that_o the_o locality_n of_o motion_n be_v but_o a_o extrinsecall_a denomination_n and_o no_o reality_n in_o the_o thing_n move_v motion_n we_o may_v now_o cast_v a_o eye_n upon_o a_o vast_a consequence_n that_o may_v be_v deduce_v out_o of_o what_o we_o have_v hitherto_o say_v for_o if_o we_o
