at_o all_o conclusion_n but_o now_o to_o bring_v all_o home_n at_o length_n to_o the_o intend_a scope_n and_o to_o recount_v the_o chief_a fruit_n of_o our_o labour_n in_o make_v these_o remark_n on_o the_o learned_a author_n two_o treatise_n if_o i_o be_v not_o out_o in_o my_o account_n i_o conceive_v in_o my_o remark_n on_o the_o first_o treatise_n to_o say_v nothing_o of_o several_a in_o the_o second_o i_o have_v clear_o demonstrate_v the_o invalidity_n of_o all_o this_o author_n invention_n though_o otherwise_o ingenious_a whether_o mechanical_a or_o natural_a and_o yet_o such_o as_o will_v exclude_v the_o spirit_n of_o nature_n whereby_o he_o may_v seem_v to_o undermine_v the_o strength_n of_o my_o demonstration_n from_o the_o rise_n of_o the_o wooden_a rundle_n in_o a_o bucket_n of_o water_n enchirid._n metaphys_n c._n 13._o sect_n 4._o which_o demonstration_n therefore_o remain_v unshaken_a in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o principium_fw-la hylarchicum_n or_o hylostatick_a spirit_n of_o the_o universe_n and_o as_o for_o that_o other_o like_o notable_a demonstration_n from_o the_o ascend_n of_o so_o great_a a_o weight_n hang_v at_o the_o embolus_fw-la of_o the_o

and_o now_o for_o that_o other_o i_o think_v i_o have_v offer_v abundant_a reason_n for_o the_o incredibility_n '_o or_o rather_o impossibility_n thereof_o 33._o wherefore_o the_o conceit_n of_o the_o

of_o his_o mind_n that_o the_o most_o important_a and_o sure_a truth_n in_o the_o world_n never_o receive_v so_o much_o detriment_n by_o argument_n and_o sophistry_n of_o opponent_n as_o they_o do_v by_o those_o argument_n in_o their_o favour_n which_o have_v improper_a medium_n to_o support_v their_o conclusion_n or_o such_o as_o be_v capable_a of_o other_o solution_n which_o i_o be_o very_o confident_a mine_n will_v never_o be_v find_v capable_a of_o and_o i_o think_v from_o these_o remark_n this_o learned_a author_n by_o this_o time_n may_v be_v sensible_a be_v no_o rash_o ground_v confidence_n second_o there_o be_v the_o redound_v of_o no_o small_a commendation_n to_o this_o author_n for_o his_o industry_n and_o dexterity_n and_o special_a sagacity_n in_o make_v and_o improve_n

that_o which_o always_o appear_v to_o i_o a_o incredible_a paradox_n i_o mean_v that_o prodigious_a elastic_a pressure_n of_o the_o air_n and_o therefore_o i_o impute_v it_o to_o the_o modesty_n of_o this_o writer_n that_o he_o have_v entitle_v his_o second_o book_n difficiles_fw-la nugae_fw-la for_o though_o there_o may_v be_v some_o difficulty_n and_o curiosity_n in_o make_v and_o examine_v such_o like_a hydrostatical_a experiment_n yet_o believe_v i_o there_o be_v no_o nugality_n at_o all_o unless_o to_o those_o that_o make_v experiment_n for_o experiment_n sake_n or_o to_o pass_v away_o the_o time_n or_o to_o be_v think_v great_a natural_a or_o rather_o mechanical_a philosopher_n and_o that_o in_o hope_n to_o show_v that_o all_o the_o phaenomena_n of_o nature_n may_v be_v perform_v without_o the_o present_a assistance_n or_o guidance_n of_o any_o immaterial_a principle_n but_o to_o try_v and_o consider_v these_o experiment_n and_o phaenomena_n with_o that_o carefulness_n and_o distinctness_n and_o penetrancy_n of_o discernment_n as_o to_o discover_v there_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v some_o immaterial_a mover_n underneath_o there_o be_v no_o nugacity_n at_o all_o in_o this_o but_o sound_n and_o serious_a philosophy_n three_o therefore_o this_o be_v no_o small_a fruit_n of_o this_o author_n be_v two_o treatise_n and_o of_o my_o labour_n in_o make_v my_o remark_n on_o they_o that_o it_o do_v more_o plain_o and_o evident_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o real_a strength_n can_v be_v say_v against_o my_o demonstration_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o nature_n but_o that_o of_o necessity_n there_o be_v such_o a_o be_v in_o the_o world_n four_o and_o that_o therefore_o it_o be_v so_o plain_a that_o there_o be_v this_o inferior_a immaterial_a be_v endue_v only_o with_o life_n or_o some_o more_o obscure_a sensation_n and_o that_o have_v the_o general_a stroke_n of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o universe_n but_o can_v act_v by_o reason_n and_o counsel_n pro_fw-la re_fw-la nata_fw-la it_o be_v manifest_a that_o there_o be_v a_o more_o noble_a and_o divine_a be_v in_o the_o world_n that_o give_v this_o inferior_a immaterial_a be_v its_o existence_n and_o allot_v to_o it_o in_o measure_n or_o limit_v out_o to_o it_o those_o general_a law_n of_o vital_a activity_n which_o we_o discover_v in_o it_o in_o the_o phaenomena_n of_o nature_n beside_o that_o this_o certainty_n of_o the_o existence_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o nature_n demolish_v the_o strong_a bulwark_n that_o ordinary_o the_o atheist_n have_v namely_o his_o confidence_n that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o spirit_n or_o immaterial_a be_v in_o the_o world_n whence_o he_o secure_o hug_v himself_o in_o that_o fond_a and_o foul_a conclusion_n that_o there_o be_v no_o god_n five_o whenas_o many_o man_n be_v drive_v quite_o out_o of_o all_o conceit_n of_o ever_o understand_v the_o nature_n of_o their_o own_o spirit_n or_o soul_n by_o that_o sophistry_n put_v upon_o they_o that_o if_o it_o be_v a_o spirit_n or_o immaterial_a be_v it_o will_v pass_v through_o the_o body_n but_o can_v not_o take_v hold_n of_o it_o or_o unite_v with_o it_o to_o move_v it_o the_o discovery_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o nature_n move_v as_o well_o as_o penetrate_v all_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o world_n will_v as_o solid_o and_o palpable_o confute_v the_o sophism_n as_o he_o do_v that_o against_o motion_n by_o walk_v before_o the_o face_n of_o the_o sophister_n that_o will_v prove_v there_o be_v none_o in_o the_o world_n six_o whenas_o this_o spirit_n of_o nature_n move_v all_o the_o tenuious_a matter_n and_o fluid_a as_o well_o as_o solid_a in_o the_o universe_n we_o easy_o discern_v how_o rational_a it_o be_v that_o particular_a spirit_n angel_n suppose_v or_o daemon_n may_v have_v a_o faculty_n of_o move_v their_o tenuious_a vehicle_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n the_o animal_n spirit_n in_o the_o body_n seven_o &_o last_o whenas_o other_o according_a to_o the_o thickness_n of_o their_o conception_n can_v believe_v they_o have_v any_o soul_n at_o all_o but_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v they_o have_v none_o what_o a_o rouse_a argument_n ought_v this_o to_o be_v to_o they_o to_o awake_v they_o out_o of_o this_o dull_a dream_n to_o consider_v that_o a_o stone_n do_v not_o descend_v to_o the_o earth_n but_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o a_o spirit_n that_o move_v it_o downward_o nor_o a_o wooden_a rundle_n ascend_v up_o in_o a_o bucket_n of_o water_n but_o by_o the_o same_o mean_n how_o then_o can_v it_o be_v possible_a but_o that_o we_o be_v conscious_a to_o ourselves_o of_o more_o free_a and_o spontaneous_a motion_n of_o motion_n contrary_a to_o the_o tugging_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o nature_n of_o motion_n heavenly_a and_o
