admit_v in_o other_o animal_n and_o though_o these_o two_o act_n which_o some_o reckon_v to_o be_v but_o one_o be_v produce_v by_o the_o same_o faculty_n as_o the_o act_n of_o memory_n yet_o they_o differ_v in_o this_o that_o the_o memory_n may_v be_v without_o the_o use_n of_o reason_v but_o the_o other_o require_v the_o assistance_n of_o the_o rational_a faculty_n to_o recover_v the_o lose_a idea_n by_o the_o help_n of_o certain_a circumstance_n that_o remain_v yet_o in_o our_o mind_n beside_o it_o be_v very_o common_a that_o some_o who_o be_v excellent_a for_o memory_n may_v be_v the_o more_o apt_a to_o be_v guilty_a of_o forgetfulness_n and_o to_o let_v slip_v out_o of_o their_o thought_n many_o weighty_a matter_n again_o memory_n precede_v remembrance_n in_o relation_n to_o time_n for_o we_o can_v call_v to_o mind_n thing_n that_o we_o never_o have_v in_o our_o memory_n before_o and_o i_o judge_v there_o be_v this_o difference_n between_o recordatio_fw-la and_o reminiscentia_fw-la that_o the_o first_o be_v a_o plain_a remembrance_n of_o thing_n remain_v yet_o in_o the_o memory_n but_o not_o think_v upon_o before_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o multiplicity_n and_o crowd_n of_o other_o idea_n whereas_o reminiscentia_fw-la be_v a_o recovery_n of_o the_o lose_a idea_n which_o be_v blot_v out_o of_o the_o memory_n and_o again_o refresh_v and_o renew_v by_o the_o assistance_n of_o some_o know_a circumstance_n and_o passage_n that_o lead_v we_o to_o the_o mind_v again_o of_o those_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v forget_v however_o we_o must_v acknowledge_v between_o they_o the_o difference_n of_o magis_fw-la &_o minus_fw-la now_o there_o be_v four_o natural_a motion_n observable_a in_o memory_n first_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o convey_v

we_o must_v here_o make_v one_o observation_n more_o that_o as_o the_o peripatetic_n common_o distinguish_v three_o distinct_a thing_n in_o every_o faculty_n so_o we_o must_v note_v the_o same_o in_o that_o of_o memory_n first_o there_o be_v the_o faculty_n power_n or_o ability_n of_o memory_n which_o we_o fancy_v to_o reside_v in_o the_o soul_n as_o in_o its_o proper_a subject_n and_o to_o produce_v act_n by_o that_o organ_n appoint_v by_o our_o wise_a maker_n namely_o the_o cerebellum_fw-la second_o to_o this_o ability_n or_o faculty_n belong_v the_o habit_n of_o memory_n which_o be_v acquire_v by_o repeat_v act_n for_o there_o may_v be_v a_o faculty_n in_o the_o soul_n which_o through_o neglect_n or_o otherwise_o may_v be_v useless_a and_o it_o often_o happen_v that_o the_o faculty_n be_v perfect_v by_o a_o constant_a and_o continual_a practice_n and_o habit_n whereas_o slothfulness_n decay_v and_o ruin_v the_o most_o excellent_a ability_n the_o three_o thing_n observable_a in_o memory_n be_v the_o several_a act_n produce_v by_o the_o faculty_n which_o at_o last_o make_v up_o a_o habit._n we_o shall_v find_v this_o distinction_n to_o be_v of_o some_o use_n in_o the_o follow_a chapter_n now_o the_o seat_n of_o memory_n be_v general_o acknowledge_v to_o be_v in_o the_o hinder_a part_n of_o the_o head_n which_o we_o call_v occiput_fw-la in_o the_o three_o
