still_o in_o the_o real_a notional_a way_n mind_n then_o be_v cogitative_a think_v or_o perceive_v substance_n or_o mind_n be_v the_o first_o subject_n of_o cogitation_n matter_n be_v extensive_a

affirm_v that_o these_o latter_a definition_n be_v equivalent_a to_o the_o former_a because_o in_o effect_n it_o be_v the_o same_o to_o say_v that_o mind_n be_v active_a as_o to_o say_v it_o be_v

des_n cartes_n make_v they_o but_o the_o former_a be_v cogitative_a the_o latter_a extensive_a substance_n we_o find_v a_o reluctance_n in_o our_o mind_n to_o conceive_v that_o cogitation_n be_v a_o substance_n as_o also_o to_o conceive_v extension_n as_o one_o and_o yet_o we_o can_v conceive_v mind_n and_o matter_n but_o as_o substance_n the_o main_a reason_n why_o i_o do_v distinguish_v substance_n into_o mind_n and_o matter_n as_o into_o first_o original_a kind_n be_v because_o as_o i_o hint_v before_o cogitation_n and_o extension_n that_o do_v constitute_v their_o several_a idea_n be_v of_o no_o relation_n one_o to_o another_o for_o what_o have_v a_o thought_n to_o do_v with_o a_o cube_n or_o a_o triangle_n or_o with_o length_n or_o breadth_n or_o depth_n certain_o cogitation_n and_o extension_n be_v quite_o different_a accident_n without_o any_o thing_n in_o their_o idea_n that_o be_v common_a to_o both_o and_o therefore_o the_o first_o subject_n of_o the_o one_o can_v be_v conceive_v the_o first_o subject_n of_o the_o other_o their_o subject_n must_v be_v substance_n of_o quite_o as_o different_a kind_n as_o themselves_o be_v at_o least_o to_o we_o since_o all_o the_o diversity_n we_o can_v conceive_v in_o substance_n be_v and_o must_v be_v take_v from_o the_o accident_n they_o have_v these_o be_v the_o character_n by_o and_o under_o which_o alone_o we_o do_v perceive_v and_o know_v and_o by_o consequence_n can_v only_o distinguish_v they_o i_o insist_v herein_o the_o more_o for_o that_o many_o think_v that_o mind_n be_v only_o a_o accident_n and_o that_o take_v for_o a_o substance_n it_o be_v unintelligible_a and_o a_o mere_a chimaera_n so_o that_o though_o matter_n be_v acknowledge_v by_o they_o to_o be_v a_o substance_n it_o will_v not_o be_v yield_v that_o abstract_n separate_a mind_n can_v be_v one_o but_o those_o that_o think_v it_o so_o if_o they_o consider_v that_o man_n have_v no_o conception_n of_o substance_n nor_o can_v have_v any_o of_o it_o but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o subject_n of_o accident_n they_o will_v soon_o change_v their_o opinion_n for_o the_o accident_n of_o cogitation_n or_o of_o activity_n that_o mind_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o be_v as_o distinct_o and_o clear_o conceivable_a as_o that_o of_o extension_n or_o of_o passivity_n which_o matter_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o nor_o be_v the_o thing_n itself_o that_o be_v the_o subject_n of_o extension_n or_o of_o passivity_n any_o more_o conceivable_a but_o by_o and_o under_o this_o that_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o mind_n and_o matter_n be_v equal_o

they_o do_v either_o qualify_v or_o else_o aid_n each_o other_o influence_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n as_o a_o soul_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o action_n of_o a_o particular_a organ_n may_v be_v call_v a_o faculty_n so_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n a_o soul_n be_v a_o system_fw-la of_o faculty_n thus_o life_n in_o animal_n arise_v from_o the_o concurrence_n of_o many_o thing_n which_o
