a_o modification_n can_v produce_v a_o act_n a_o modification_n of_o matter_n may_v produce_v think_v though_o no_o modification_n of_o sound_n can_v produce_v seeing_n but_o think_v and_o seeing_n be_v both_o act_n they_o must_v suppose_v power_n and_o the_o enquiry_n not_o be_v whether_o modification_n can_v act_v for_o it_o be_v past_a doubt_n that_o modification_n can_v act_v for_o not_o modification_n but_o substance_n so_o and_o so_o modify_v or_o have_v such_o and_o such_o power_n be_v agent_n and_o do_v produce_v acts._n the_o proposition_n will_v come_v near_o to_o the_o subject_n we_o be_v discourse_v of_o if_o it_o be_v word_v thus_o if_o no_o modification_n of_o sound_n can_v produce_v the_o power_n of_o see_v than_o no_o modification_n of_o matter_n can_v produce_v the_o power_n of_o think_v now_o because_o i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o notion_n some_o person_n may_v have_v of_o modification_n produce_v power_n or_o in_o what_o sense_n they_o may_v understand_v those_o word_n i_o will_v state_n the_o present_a enquiry_n as_o plain_o as_o i_o can_v and_o then_o consider_v this_o proposition_n or_o argument_n more_o particular_o we_o be_v very_o sensible_a that_o it_o be_v the_o pleasure_n of_o almighty_a god_n that_o solid_a substance_n be_v various_o modify_v shall_v have_v several_a power_n by_o which_o power_n they_o be_v ●itted_v and_o enable_v to_o do_v several_a sort_n of_o act_n or_o produce_v various_a effect_n the_o enquiry_n therefore_o be_v whet●er_v it_o can_v be_v demonstrative_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v or_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o matter_n be_v in_o a_o certain_a manner_n modify_v shall_v have_v a_o power_n of_o think_v whereby_o it_o may_v be_v enable_v to_o think_v and_o to_o demonstrate_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o matter_n however_o modify_v shall_v have_v a_o power_n of_o think_v superadd_v to_o it_o this_o argument_n be_v propose_v viz._n that_o if_o no_o modification_n of_o ●ound_n can_v produce_v the_o power_n of_o see_v than_o no_o modification_n of_o matter_n can_v produce_v the_o power_n of_o think_v the_o sense_n then_o of_o this_o argument_n must_v be_v this_o if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o see_v shall_v be_v superadd_v to_o sound_v what_o way_n soever_o it_o can_v be_v modify_v than_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o think_v shall_v be_v superadd_v to_o matter_n whatever_o way_n it_o can_v be_v modify_v now_o this_o be_v apparent_o so_o unconcluding_a a_o proposition_n i_o can_v think_v any_o man_n will_v insist_v on_o it_o or_o pretend_v that_o by_o modification_n of_o sound_n produce_v a_o power_n of_o see_v can_v be_v mean_v produce_v that_o power_n in_o itself_o but_o that_o because_o various_a modification_n of_o sound_n do_v produce_v various_a sensation_n in_o other_o thing_n therefore_o produce_v the_o power_n of_o see_v must_v be_v understand_v of_o produce_v it_o in_o other_o subject_n let_v the_o argument_n then_o to_o its_o utmost_a advantage_n run_v thus_o if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o see_v shall_v be_v super_fw-la add_v upon_o any_o modification_n of_o sound_n to_o those_o subject_n in_o which_o the_o various_a modification_n of_o sound_n do_v ordinary_o produce_v certain_a sensation_n than_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o think_v shall_v be_v superadd_v to_o solid_a substance_n in_o what_o manner_n soever_o it_o can_v be_v modify_v that_o i_o may_v neither_o pass_v over_o this_o argument_n without_o take_v any_o notice_n of_o it_o nor_o yet_o bear_v too_o hard_o upon_o it_o i_o will_v only_o offer_v these_o three_o consideration_n concern_v it_o 1._o that_o suppose_v the_o argument_n to_o have_v any_o strength_n in_o it_o it_o will_v labour_v under_o this_o unhappiness_n that_o it_o will_v prove_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o it_o shall_v 2._o that_o such_o a_o reason_n may_v be_v assign_v why_o no_o modification_n of_o sound_n can_v produce_v see_v or_o why_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o see_v shall_v be_v superadd_v upon_o any_o modification_n of_o sound_n etc._n etc._n as_o the_o like_a can_v be_v assign_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o think_v shall_v be_v superadd_v to_o matter_n upon_o its_o be_v in_o a_o certain_a manner_n modify_v 3._o that_o we_o can_v argue_v regular_o from_o the_o modification_n of_o sound_n to_o the_o modification_n of_o matter_n first_o that_o suppose_v this_o argument_n to_o have_v any_o strength_n in_o it_o it_o have_v too_o much_o it_o will_v labour_v under_o this_o unhappiness_n that_o it_o will_v prove_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o it_o shall_v and_o quite_o over-turn_a the_o whole_a course_n and_o order_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o ordinary_a providence_n of_o god_n in_o the_o material_a world_n for_o the_o argument_n can_v be_v restrain_v and_o limit_v to_o the_o power_n of_o think_v but_o must_v and_o will_v reach_v to_o all_o power_n in_o matter_n and_o so_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o any_o power_n shall_v be_v superad_v to_o matter_n upon_o its_o be_v any_o way_n modify_v which_o to_o i_o have_v this_o sound_n with_o it_o that_o though_o it_o be_v the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o matter_n may_v be_v various_o modify_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o it_o shall_v have_v any_o power_n at_o all_o i._n e._n be_v capable_a of_o any_o action_n place_v any_o other_o power_n in_o the_o room_n of_o those_o which_o be_v name_v the_o argument_n will_v be_v every_o jot_n as_o good_a as_o it_o be_v and_o the_o proposition_n of_o which_o it_o consist_v will_v be_v every_o whit_n as_o true_a as_o they_o be_v with_o these_o that_o be_v mention_v and_o therefore_o i_o forbear_v to_o reflect_v on_o the_o fundamental_a error_n that_o press_v the_o argument_n and_o on_o that_o faulty_a presumption_n this_o way_n of_o argue_v import_v in_o undertake_v to_o determine_v what_o be_v or_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n without_o any_o either_o real_a or_o verbal_a discovery_n from_o he_o concern_v it_o second_o such_o a_o reason_n may_v be_v assign_v why_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o see_v shall_v be_v superadd_v upon_o any_o modification_n of_o sound_n to_o those_o subject_n in_o which_o the_o various_a modification_n of_o sound_n do_v usual_o produce_v certain_a sensation_n the_o like_a to_o which_o cannot_v be_v assign_v why_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o a_o power_n of_o think_v shall_v be_v superadd_v to_o matter_n upon_o its_o be_v in_o a_o certain_a manner_n modify_v for_o sound_n and_o the_o various_a modification_n of_o it_o be_v only_a idea_n in_o our_o mind_n and_o be_v in_o the_o body_n we_o denominate_v from_o they_o only_a power_n to_o produce_v those_o sensation_n in_o we_o to_o which_o we_o give_v the_o name_n by_o which_o we_o call_v they_o loud_a shrill_a etc._n etc._n in_o idea_n be_v but_o the_o certain_a bulk_n figure_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o insensible_a part_n in_o the_o body_n themselves_o which_o ca●se_v those_o sensation_n in_o we_o they_o be_v but_o certain_a power_n that_o be_v in_o body_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o particular_a constitution_n of_o their_o primary_n quali●ies_v to_o operate_v after_o a_o particular_a manner_n on_o one_o certain_a sense_n or_o organ_n of_o sense_n viz._n the_o ear_n by_o agitate_v various_o the_o animal_n spirit_n which_o be_v in_o that_o organ_n when_o due_o dispose_v to_o receive_v their_o impression_n the_o same_o modification_n of_o matter_n may_v produce_v in_o it_o a_o power_n which_o will_v produce_v in_o we_o different_a sensation_n but_o by_o operate_n on_o different_a organ_n of_o sense_n fit_v to_o receive_v its_o impression_n one_o and_o the_o same_o modification_n in_o the_o external_a object_n may_v produce_v different_a effect_n or_o sensation_n in_o we_o because_o it_o operate_v on_o different_a organ_n adapt_v in_o we_o for_o different_a purpose_n the_o various_a modification_n of_o sound_n can_v produce_v in_o we_o see_v because_o it_o be_v the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o the_o idea_n those_o body_n communicate_v to_o we_o which_o we_o call_v in_o general_a various_a modification_n of_o sound_n shall_v be_v convey_v to_o we_o
