a_o supernatural_a something_o but_o a_o vacnum_n be_v a_o pure_a nothing_o both_o naturally_n and_o supernatural_o and_o god_n forbid_v i_o shall_v be_v so_o irreligious_a as_o to_o compare_v

perception_n do_v pattern_n out_o the_o exterior_a figure_n of_o colour_n as_o easy_o as_o of_o any_o other_o object_n yet_o all_o perception_n of_o colour_n be_v not_o make_v by_o pattern_v for_o as_o there_o be_v many_o perception_n which_o take_v no_o pattern_n from_o outward_a object_n so_o there_o be_v also_o perception_n of_o colour_n which_o never_o be_v present_v to_o our_o sensitive_a organ_n neither_o be_v any_o perception_n make_v by_o exterior_a object_n but_o by_o interior_a corporeal_a figurative_a motion_n for_o the_o object_n do_v not_o print_n or_o act_v any_o way_n upon_o the_o eye_n but_o it_o be_v the_o sensitive_a motion_n in_o the_o eye_n which_o pattern_n out_o the_o figure_n of_o the_o object_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o as_o the_o part_n of_o some_o body_n do_v consist_v of_o several_a different_a figure_n which_o the_o learned_a call_v heterogeneous_a one_o figure_n be_v include_v within_o another_o and_o some_o again_o their_o part_n be_v but_o of_o one_o kind_n of_o figure_n which_o they_o call_v homogeneous_a body_n as_o for_o example_n water_n so_o it_o may_v be_v with_o colour_n for_o some_o their_o part_n may_v be_v quite_o thorough_a of_o one_o colour_n and_o other_o again_o may_v be_v of_o several_a colour_n and_o indeed_o most_o creature_n as_o they_o have_v different_a part_n so_o those_o different_a part_n have_v also_o different_a colour_n and_o as_o those_o part_n do_v alter_v so_o do_v their_o colour_n for_o example_n a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o good_a health_n look_v of_o a_o sanguine_a complexion_n but_o be_v trouble_v with_o the_o yellow_a or_o black_a jaundice_n his_o complexion_n be_v of_o the_o colour_n of_o the_o humour_n either_o black_a or_o yellow_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o proceed_v always_o from_o the_o overflow_n of_o the_o humour_n towards_o the_o exterior_a part_n for_o many_o time_n when_o the_o humour_n be_v obstruct_v it_o will_v cause_v the_o same_o effect_n but_o then_o the_o corporeal_a motion_n in_o the_o extreme_a part_n alter_v by_o way_n of_o imitation_n or_o metamorphosing_a as_o from_o a_o sanguine_a colour_n into_o the_o colour_n of_o the_o predominant_a humour_n wherefore_o it_o be_v no_o more_o wonder_n to_o see_v colour_n change_v in_o the_o temper_n of_o steel_n as_o some_o be_v please_v to_o allege_v this_o experiment_n then_o to_o see_v steel_n change_v and_o rechange_v its_o temper_n from_o be_v hard_o to_o soft_a from_o tough_a to_o brittle_a etc._n etc._n which_o change_v prove_v that_o colour_n be_v material_a as_o well_o as_o steel_n so_o that_o the_o alteration_n of_o the_o corporeal_a part_n be_v the_o alteration_n of_o the_o corporeal_a figure_n of_o colour_n they_o also_o prove_v that_o light_n be_v not_o essential_a to_o colour_n for_o although_o some_o colour_n be_v make_v by_o several_a reflection_n refraction_n and_o position_n of_o light_n yet_o light_n be_v not_o the_o true_a and_o natural_a cause_n of_o all_o colour_n but_o those_o colour_n that_o be_v make_v by_o light_n be_v most_o inconstant_a momentany_a and_o alterable_a by_o reason_n light_n and_o its_o effect_n be_v very_o changeable_a neither_o be_v colour_n make_v by_o a_o bare_a motion_n for_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o bare_a or_o immaterial_a motion_n in_o nature_n but_o both_o light_n and_o colour_n be_v make_v by_o the_o corporeal_a figurative_a motion_n of_o nature_n and_o according_a to_o the_o various_a change_n of_o those_o motion_n there_o be_v also_o various_a and_o different_a light_n and_o colour_n and_o the_o perception_n of_o light_n and_o colour_n be_v make_v and_o dissolve_v by_o the_o sensitive_a figurative_a motion_n in_o the_o optic_n sensorium_fw-la without_o the_o exchange_n of_o exterior_a object_n but_o as_o the_o slack_a loose_a or_o rare_a part_n be_v of_o least_o solid_a or_o compose_a corporeal_a figure_n so_o be_v they_o most_o apt_a to_o change_v and_o rechange_v upon_o the_o least_o disorder_n as_o may_v well_o be_v observe_v in_o colour_n raise_v by_o passion_n as_o fear_v anger_n or_o the_o like_a which_o will_v change_v not_o only_o the_o complexion_n and_o countenance_n but_o the_o very_a feature_n will_v have_v some_o alteration_n for_o a_o short_a time_n and_o many_o time_n the_o whole_a body_n will_v be_v so_o alter_v as_o not_o to_o be_v right_o compose_v again_o for_o a_o good_a while_n nay_o often_o there_o follow_v a_o total_a dissolution_n of_o the_o whole_a figure_n which_o we_o call_v death_n and_o at_o all_o this_o we_o need_v not_o wonder_n if_o we_o do_v but_o consider_v that_o nature_n be_v full_a of_o sense_n and_o reason_n that_o be_v of_o sensitive_a and_o rational_a perception_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o oftentimes_o the_o disturbance_n of_o one_o part_n cause_v all_o other_o part_n of_o a_o compose_a figure_n to_o take_v a_o alarm_n for_o as_o we_o may_v observe_v it_o be_v so_o in_o all_o other_o compose_v body_n even_o in_o those_o compose_v by_o art_n as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o politic_a body_n of_o a_o commonwealth_n one_o traitor_n be_v apt_a to_o cause_v all_o the_o kingdom_n to_o take_v arm_n and_o although_o every_o member_n know_v not_o particular_o of_o the_o traitor_n and_o of_o the_o circumstance_n of_o his_o crime_n yet_o every_o member_n if_o regular_a know_v its_o particular_a duty_n which_o cause_v a_o general_a agreement_n to_o assist_v each_o other_o and_o as_o it_o be_v with_o a_o commonwealth_n so_o it_o be_v also_o with_o a_o animal_n body_n for_o if_o there_o be_v faction_n among_o the_o part_n of_o a_o animal_n body_n then_o straight_o there_o arise_v a_o civil_a war._n wherefore_o to_o return_v to_o colour_n a_o sudden_a change_n of_o colour_n may_v cause_v no_o wonder_n by_o reason_n there_o be_v oftentimes_o in_o nature_n a_o sudden_a change_n of_o part_n that_o be_v a_o alteration_n of_o figure_n in_o the_o same_o part_n neither_o be_v it_o more_o to_o be_v admire_v that_o one_o colour_n shall_v be_v within_o another_o than_o one_o figurative_a part_n be_v within_o another_o for_o colour_n be_v figurative_a part_n and_o as_o there_o be_v several_a creature_n so_o there_o be_v also_o several_a colour_n for_o the_o colour_n of_o a_o creature_n be_v as_o well_o corporeal_a as_o the_o creature_n itself_o and_o to_o express_v myself_o as_o clear_o as_o i_o can_v colour_n be_v as_o much_o a_o body_n as_o place_n and_o magnitude_n which_o be_v but_o one_o thing_n with_o body_n wherefore_o when_o the_o body_n or_o any_o corporeal_a part_n vary_v whether_o solid_a or_o rare_a place_v magnitude_n colour_n and_o the_o like_a must_v of_o necessity_n change_n or_o vary_v also_o which_o change_n be_v no_o annihilation_n or_o perish_v for_o as_o no_o particle_n of_o matter_n can_v be_v lose_v in_o nature_n nor_o no_o particular_a motion_n so_o neither_o can_v colour_n and_o therefore_o the_o opinion_n of_o those_o who_o say_v that_o when_o flax_n or_o silk_n be_v divide_v into_o very_o small_a thread_n or_o fine_a part_n those_o part_n lose_v their_o colour_n and_o be_v twist_v regain_v their_o colour_n seem_v not_o conformable_a to_o truth_n for_o the_o division_n of_o their_o part_n do_v not_o destroy_v their_o colour_n nor_o the_o compose_n of_o those_o part_n regain_v they_o but_o they_o be_v divide_v into_o such_o small_a and_o fine_a part_n it_o make_v their_o colour_n which_o be_v the_o fine_a of_o their_o exterior_a part_n not_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o our_o optic_a perception_n for_o what_o be_v very_o small_a or_o rare_a be_v not_o subject_a to_o the_o humane_a optic_a sense_n wherefore_o there_o be_v these_o follow_a condition_n require_v to_o the_o optic_a perception_n of_o a_o exterior_a object_n first_o the_o object_n must_v not_o be_v too_o subtle_a rare_a or_o little_a but_o of_o a_o certain_a degree_n of_o magnitude_n next_o it_o must_v not_o be_v too_o far_o distant_a or_o without_o the_o reach_n of_o our_o sight_n then_o the_o medium_n must_v not_o be_v obstruct_v so_o as_o to_o hinder_v our_o perception_n and_o last_o our_o optic_n sensorium_fw-la must_v be_v perfect_a and_o the_o sensitive_a motion_n regular_a of_o
hair_n breadth_n cause_v a_o several_a perception_n beside_o it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o five_o organ_n in_o a_o animal_n but_o every_o part_n and_o particle_n of_o his_o body_n that_o have_v a_o peculiar_a knowledge_n and_o perception_n because_o it_o consist_v of_o self-moving_a matter_n which_o if_o so_o than_o a_o looking-glass_n that_o pattern_n out_o the_o face_n of_o a_o man_n and_o a_o man_n eye_n that_o pattern_n again_o the_o copy_n from_o the_o glass_n can_v be_v say_v to_o have_v the_o same_o perception_n by_o reason_n a_o glass_n and_o a_o animal_n be_v different_a sort_n of_o creature_n for_o though_o a_o piece_n of_o wood_n stone_n or_o metal_n may_v have_v a_o perceptive_a knowledge_n of_o man_n yet_o it_o have_v not_o a_o man_n perception_n because_o it_o be_v a_o vegetable_a or_o mineral_n and_o can_v have_v a_o animal_n knowledge_n or_o perception_n no_o more_o than_o the_o eye_n pattern_v out_o a_o tree_n or_o stone_n can_v be_v say_v to_o have_v a_o vegetable_a or_o mineral_n perception_n nay_o when_o one_o animal_n as_o for_o example_n one_o man_n perceive_v another_o he_o do_v not_o perceive_v his_o knowledge_n for_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o perceive_v the_o exterior_a figure_n of_o a_o creature_n and_o another_o thing_n to_o perceive_v its_o interior_a proper_a and_o innate_a action_n also_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o perceive_v exterior_a object_n and_o another_o to_o receive_v knowledge_n for_o no_o part_n can_v give_v away_o to_o another_o its_o inherent_a and_o proper_a particular_a nature_n neither_o can_v one_o part_n make_v itself_o another_o part_n it_o may_v imitate_v some_o action_n of_o another_o part_n but_o not_o make_v itself_o the_o same_o part_n which_o prove_v that_o each_o part_n must_v have_v its_o own_o knowledge_n and_o perception_n according_a to_o its_o own_o particular_a nature_n for_o though_o several_a part_n may_v have_v the_o like_a perception_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o the_o same_o and_o although_o the_o exterior_a figure_n of_o some_o object_n may_v be_v alike_o yet_o the_o perception_n may_v be_v quite_o different_a it_o be_v true_a sensitive_a and_o rational_a knowledge_n be_v general_a and_o infinite_a in_o nature_n but_o every_o part_n be_v finite_a can_v have_v but_o a_o finite_a and_o particular_a knowledge_n and_o that_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o its_o particular_a figure_n for_o as_o not_o all_o creature_n although_o they_o be_v compose_v of_o one_o matter_n be_v alike_o in_o their_o figure_n so_o not_o all_o can_v have_v the_o like_a knowledge_n and_o perception_n though_o they_o have_v all_o self-motion_n for_o particular_a creature_n and_o action_n be_v but_o effect_n of_o the_o only_a infinite_a self-moving_a matter_n and_o so_o be_v particular_a perception_n and_o although_o they_o be_v different_a yet_o the_o difference_n of_o effect_n do_v not_o argue_v different_a cause_n but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o cause_n may_v produce_v several_a and_o different_a effect_n so_o that_o although_o there_o be_v infinite_a different_a motion_n in_o nature_n yet_o they_o be_v all_o but_o motion_n and_o can_v differ_v from_o each_o other_o in_o be_v motion_n or_o self-moving_a part_n and_o although_o there_o be_v infinite_a several_a and_o different_a perception_n yet_o they_o be_v all_o perception_n for_o the_o effect_n can_v alter_v the_o cause_n but_o the_o cause_n may_v alter_v the_o effect_n wherefore_o rational_a and_o sensitive_a corporeal_a motion_n can_v change_v from_o be_v motion_n though_o they_o may_v change_v from_o move_v thus_o to_o move_v thus_o nor_o perception_n from_o be_v perception_n though_o they_o may_v change_v from_o be_v such_o or_o such_o particular_a perception_n for_o the_o change_n be_v only_o in_o particular_n not_o in_o the_o ground_n or_o principle_n which_o continue_v always_o the_o same_o the_o truth_n be_v as_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o one_o figure_n shall_v be_v another_o figure_n or_o one_o part_n another_o part_n so_o likewise_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o perception_n of_o one_o part_n shall_v be_v the_o perception_n of_o another_o but_o be_v in_o part_n they_o must_v be_v several_a and_o those_o part_n be_v different_a they_o must_v be_v different_a also_o but_o some_o be_v more_o different_a than_o other_o for_o the_o perception_n of_o creature_n of_o different_a sort_n as_o for_o example_n of_o a_o vegetable_a and_o a_o animal_n be_v more_o different_a than_o the_o perception_n of_o particular_n of_o one_o sort_n or_o of_o one_o compose_a figure_n for_o as_o there_o be_v difference_n in_o their_o interior_a nature_n so_o in_o their_o perception_n so_o that_o a_o mineral_n or_o vegetable_a that_o perceive_v the_o figure_n of_o a_o animal_n have_v no_o more_o the_o perception_n of_o a_o animal_n than_o a_o animal_n which_o perceive_v or_o pattern_n out_o the_o figure_n of_o a_o mineral_n or_o vegetable_a have_v the_o

be_v so_o close_o join_v to_o each_o other_o yet_o their_o perception_n be_v quite_o different_a for_o the_o man_n only_o know_v what_o he_o feel_v or_o see_v or_o hear_v or_o smell_n or_o taste_v but_o know_v not_o what_o sense_n or_o perception_n those_o part_n have_v nay_o he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o that_o that_o even_o one_o part_n of_o his_o body_n do_v not_o know_v the_o sense_n and_o

hand_n know_v not_o the_o perception_n of_o another_o part_n of_o the_o same_o hand_n for_o as_o the_o corporeal_a figurative_a motion_n differ_v so_o do_v particular_a knowledge_n and_o perception_n and_o although_o sensitive_a and_o rational_a knowledge_n be_v general_a and_o infinite_a in_o infinite_a nature_n yet_o every_o part_n be_v finite_a have_v but_o finite_a and_o particular_a perception_n beside_o perception_n be_v but_o a_o effect_n and_o not_o a_o cause_n be_v more_o various_a in_o particular_n for_o although_o all_o creature_n be_v compose_v of_o rational_a and_o sensitive_a matter_n yet_o their_o perception_n be_v not_o alike_o neither_o can_v the_o effect_n alter_v the_o cause_n for_o though_o the_o several_a action_n of_o sensitive_a and_o rational_a matter_n be_v various_a and_o make_v several_a perception_n yet_o they_o can_v make_v several_a kind_n of_o sensitive_a and_o rational_a matter_n but_o when_o as_o perception_n change_v the_o part_n of_o the_o sensitive_a and_o rational_a matter_n remain_v the_o same_o in_o themselves_o that_o be_v they_o do_v not_o change_v from_o be_v sensitive_a or_o rational_a part_n although_o they_o may_v make_v numerous_a perception_n in_o their_o particular_a part_n according_a to_o the_o various_a change_n of_o self-motion_n but_o some_o may_v say_v if_o the_o particular_a part_n of_o one_o

there_o be_v also_o perception_n and_o though_o no_o part_n of_o nature_n can_v have_v a_o absolute_a knowledge_n yet_o it_o be_v neither_o absolute_o ignorant_a but_o it_o have_v a_o particular_a

by_o discourse_n i_o do_v not_o mean_a speech_n but_o a_o argue_n of_o the_o mind_n or_o a_o rational_a inquiry_n into_o the_o cause_n of_o natural_a effect_n for_o discourse_n be_v as_o much_o as_o

from_o the_o real_a the_o mechanical_a the_o experimental_a philosophy_n which_o have_v this_o advantage_n over_o the_o philosophy_n of_o discourse_n and_o disputation_n that_o whereas_o that_o

wherefore_o experimental_a philosopher_n can_v just_o blame_v i_o for_o maintain_v the_o opinion_n of_o self-motion_n and_o a_o general_a perception_n in_o nature_n but_o to_o return_v to_o

and_o the_o like_a for_o if_o nature_n shall_v work_v like_o art_n she_o will_v produce_v a_o man_n like_o as_o a_o carver_n make_v a_o statue_n or_o a_o painter_n draw_v a_o picture_n beside_o it_o will_v require_v a_o world_n of_o such_o saline_a or_o acid_a particle_n to_o make_v all_o the_o ice_n that_o be_v in_o nature_n indeed_o it_o be_v as_o much_o absurdity_n as_o impossibility_n to_o

this_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o all_o kind_n of_o heat_n and_o cold_a that_o be_v in_o nature_n the_o truth_n be_v if_o air_n water_n earth_n nitre_n or_o salt_n

q._n 3._o whether_o the_o inanimate_a matter_n can_v have_v part_n without_o self-motion_n i_o answer_v yes_o for_o wherefoever_o be_v body_n or_o matter_n there_o be_v also_o part_n because_o part_n

no_o fancy_n imagination_n conception_n memory_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o this_o triumvirate_n of_o the_o degree_n of_o matter_n be_v so_o necessary_a a_o constitutive_a principle_n of_o all_o natural_a effect_n that_o nature_n can_v not_o be_v without_o it_o i_o mean_v nature_n consider_v not_o what_o she_o may_v have_v be_v but_o as_o she_o be_v and_o as_o much_o as_o we_o be_v able_a to_o perceive_v by_o her_o action_n for_o natural_a philosophy_n be_v no_o more_o but_o a_o rational_a inquisition_n into_o the_o cause_n of_o natural_a effect_n and_o therefore_o as_o we_o observe_v the_o effect_n and_o action_n of_o nature_n so_o we_o may_v probable_o guess_v at_o their_o cause_n and_o principle_n q._n 4._o how_o so_o fine_a subtle_a and_o pure_a a_o part_n as_o the_o animate_v

call_v as_o for_o example_n the_o perception_n of_o see_v hear_v smell_a taste_v etc._n etc._n in_o animal_n but_o it_o be_v proper_o a_o action_n of_o draw_v suck_a breathe_v in_o or_o receive_v any_o way_n outward_a part_n and_o of_o vent_v discharge_v or_o send_v forth_o inward_a part_n nevertheless_o all_o this_o can_v be_v do_v without_o perception_n or_o knowledge_n no_o more_o then_o without_o motion_n for_o wheresoever_o be_v motion_n there_o be_v perception_n also_o and_o therefore_o respiration_n be_v a_o perceptive_a action_n in_o short_a i_o desire_v it_o may_v be_v observe_v 1._o that_o there_o be_v perception_n in_o every_o action_n but_o that_o not_o every_o perception_n be_v make_v by_o pattern_v 2._o that_o all_o self-moving_a part_n be_v perceptive_a 3._o that_o perception_n perceptive_a knowledge_n and_o exterior_a knowledge_n be_v all_o one_o thing_n and_o that_o i_o take_v they_o indifferent_o 4._o that_o all_o voluntary_a action_n both_o of_o sense_n and_o reason_n be_v make_v by_o perceptive_a part_n and_o therefore_o when_o i_o make_v a_o distinguishment_n between_o voluntary_a action_n and_o perception_n i_o mean_v the_o perception_n of_o a_o compose_a figure_n and_o not_o the_o particular_a perceptive_a knowledge_n between_o those_o part_n that_o join_v in_o the_o act_n of_o such_o perception_n or_o in_o the_o make_n of_o voluntary_a figure_n but_o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o if_o all_o motion_n be_v perceptive_a they_o will_v be_v whole_o employ_v in_o nothing_o else_o but_o in_o make_v copy_n of_o exterior_a part_n or_o object_n my_o answer_n be_v although_o i_o say_v that_o all_o motion_n be_v perceptive_a yet_o i_o do_v not_o positive_o affirm_v that_o all_o perception_n in_o nature_n be_v make_v by_o pattern_v or_o imitation_n for_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o there_o be_v as_o many_o different_a sort_n of_o perception_n as_o there_o be_v of_o motion_n because_o every_o particular_a motion_n have_v a_o particular_a perception_n and_o though_o in_o a_o compose_a figure_n or_o creature_n some_o motion_n may_v work_v to_o the_o patern_v out_o of_o exterior_a object_n yet_o all_o the_o rest_n may_v not_o do_v so_o and_o be_v nevertheless_o perceptive_a for_o like_a as_o a_o man_n or_o any_o other_o animal_n creature_n be_v not_o altogether_o compose_v of_o eye_n ear_n nose_n or_o the_o like_a sensitive_a organ_n so_o not_o all_o perceptive_a motion_n be_v imitate_v or_o pattern_v but_o some_o be_v retentive_a some_o expulsive_a some_o attractive_a some_o contractive_a some_o dilative_a some_o create_v or_o produce_v some_o dissolve_v some_o imitate_v or_o pattern_v and_o so_o forth_o and_o as_o there_o be_v degree_n of_o part_n and_o motion_n so_o some_o perception_n may_v be_v so_o much_o pure_a fine_a and_o subtle_a than_o other_o as_o much_o as_o pure_a air_n be_v beyond_o gross_a earth_n the_o truth_n be_v we_o can_v judge_v of_o nature_n action_n any_o otherway_n than_o we_o

the_o way_n of_o pattern_v or_o imitation_n we_o may_v sure_o conclude_v that_o some_o perception_n be_v make_v that_o way_n but_o that_o all_o other_o perception_n in_o all_o natural_a part_n or_o creature_n shall_v be_v after_o the_o same_o manner_n will_v be_v too_o presumptuous_a for_o any_o particular_a creature_n to_o affirm_v since_o there_o be_v infinite_a several_a sort_n of_o perception_n and_o although_o we_o may_v just_o and_o with_o all_o reason_n believe_v that_o all_o part_n of_o nature_n be_v perceptive_a because_o they_o be_v self-moving_a and_o self-knowing_a yet_o no_o particular_a creature_n be_v able_a to_o judge_n how_o and_o in_o what_o manner_n they_o perceive_v no_o more_o than_o it_o can_v know_v how_o they_o move_v and_o by_o this_o it_o be_v evident_a how_o in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o organ_n of_o the_o eye_n some_o motion_n or_o part_n may_v work_v to_o the_o act_n of_o perception_n proper_o so_o call_v which_o be_v make_v by_o pattern_v out_o

as_o the_o chief_a mistress_n of_o information_n which_o in_o time_n may_v make_v she_o a_o more_o prudent_a and_o profitable_a servant_n than_o she_o be_v for_o in_o this_o age_n she_o be_v become_v rather_o vain_a then_o profitable_a strive_v to_o act_v beyond_o her_o power_n as_o i_o do_v undertake_v to_o write_v beyond_o my_o experience_n for_o which_o it_o be_v probable_a artist_n will_v

wilful_a in_o our_o opinion_n and_o most_o common_o impertinent_o foolish_a and_o if_o the_o art_n of_o micrography_n can_v but_o find_v out_o the_o figurative_a corporeal_a motion_n that_o make_v or_o cause_v we_o to_o be_v thus_o it_o will_v be_v a_o art_n of_o great_a same_o for_o by_o that_o artist_n may_v come_v to_o discover_v more_o hide_a cause_n and_o effect_n but_o yet_o i_o doubt_v they_o will_v hardly_o find_v out_o the_o interior_a nature_n of_o our_o fex_n by_o the_o exterior_a form_n of_o their_o face_n or_o countenance_n although_o very_o curious_a and_o full_a of_o

figure_n as_o a_o young_a beautiful_a lady_n when_o she_o appear_v ill-favoured_a by_o art_n i_o do_v not_o say_v this_o as_o if_o optic_a glass_n can_v not_o present_v the_o true_a figure_n of_o a_o original_a for_o if_o they_o do_v not_o exceed_v the_o compass_n of_o natural_a dimension_n they_o may_v but_o when_o they_o endeavour_v to_o go_v beyond_o they_o and_o do_v more_o than_o nature_n have_v do_v they_o rather_o present_v monstrous_a then_o true_o natural_a figure_n wherefore_o those_o in_o my_o opinion_n be_v the_o best_a artist_n that_o keep_v near_o to_o nature_n rule_n and_o endeavour_v not_o to_o know_v more_o than_o what_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o finite_a part_n or_o creature_n to_o know_v for_o sure_o there_o be_v no_o better_a way_n to_o be_v right_o and_o true_o inform_v of_o nature_n work_n then_o by_o study_v nature_n corporeal_a figurative_a motion_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o which_o study_n they_o will_v practice_v art_n as_o far_o as_o art_n be_v able_a to_o be_v practise_v more_o easy_o and_o successful_o than_o they_o will_v do_v without_o it_o but_o to_o conclude_v this_o discourse_n some_o part_n of_o nature_n be_v more_o endue_v with_o regular_a reason_n than_o other_o which_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o some_o creature_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o fort_n or_o kind_n as_o for_o example_n mankind_n be_v more_o wife_n and_o ingenious_a than_o other_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o art_n but_o regular_a sense_n and_o reason_n that_o make_v some_o more_o know_v and_o some_o more_o wife_n and_o ingenious_a than_o other_o and_o the_o irregular_a motion_n of_o sense_n and_o reason_n that_o make_v some_o more_o ignorant_a or_o more_o extravagant_a in_o their_o opinion_n than_o other_o 5._o art_n can_v introduce_v new_a form_n in_o nature_n some_o account_n it_o a_o great_a honour_n that_o the_o indulgent_a creator_n although_o he_o give_v not_o to_o natural_a creature_n the_o power_n to_o produce_v one_o atom_n of_o matter_n yet_o allow_v they_o the_o power_n to_o introduce_v so_o many_o form_n which_o philosopher_n teach_v to_o be_v noble_a than_o matter_n and_o to_o work_v such_o change_n among_o creature_n that_o if_o

and_o other_o well_o furnish_v magazine_n of_o art_n he_o will_v admire_v to_o see_v what_o a_o new_a world_n it_o be_v where_o first_o i_o do_v not_o understand_v how_o man_n or_o any_o other_o creature_n shall_v have_v the_o power_n of_o make_v or_o introduce_v new_a form_n if_o those_o form_n be_v not_o already_o in_o nature_n for_o no_o creature_n by_o any_o art_n whatsoever_o be_v able_a to_o produce_v a_o new_a form_n no_o more_o than_o he_o can_v make_v a_o atom_n of_o new_a matter_n by_o reason_n the_o power_n lie_v in_o nature_n and_o the_o god_n of_o nature_n not_o in_o any_o of_o her_o creature_n and_o if_o art_n may_v or_o can_v work_v change_n among_o some_o fellow-creature_n they_o be_v but_o natural_a by_o reason_n nature_n be_v in_o a_o perpetual_a motion_n and_o in_o some_o part_n in_o a_o perpetual_a transformation_n next_o as_o for_o the_o question_n whether_o form_n be_v more_o noble_a than_o the_o matter_n my_o opinion_n be_v that_o this_o can_v with_o no_o more_o ground_n of_o truth_n be_v affirm_v then_o that_o the_o effect_n be_v noble_a than_o its_o cause_n and_o if_o any_o creature_n shall_v have_v power_n to_o make_v form_n which_o be_v more_o noble_a than_o matter_n itself_o then_o certain_o that_o creature_n will_v be_v above_o nature_n and_o a_o creator_n rather_o than_o a_o creature_n beside_o form_n can_v be_v create_v without_o matter_n nor_o matter_n without_o form_n for_o form_n be_v no_o thing_n subsist_v by_o itself_o without_o matter_n but_o matter_n and_o form_n make_v but_o one_o body_n and_o therefore_o he_o that_o introduce_v a_o new_a form_n must_v also_o introduce_v a_o new_a matter_n and_o though_o art_n change_v form_n yet_o it_o can_v be_v say_v to_o introduce_v a_o new_a form_n for_o form_n be_v and_o have_v be_v eternal_o in_o nature_n as_o well_o as_o matter_n so_o that_o nothing_o be_v create_v anew_o which_o never_o be_v in_o nature_n before_o it_o be_v true_a if_o adam_n be_v alive_a now_o he_o may_v see_v more_o variety_n but_o not_o more_o truth_n for_o there_o be_v no_o more_o kind_n and_o sort_n of_o natural_a creature_n than_o there_o be_v at_o his_o time_n though_o never_o more_o

architecture_n of_o art_n it_o will_v be_v a_o very_a monstruous_a one_o but_o i_o be_o sure_a art_n will_v never_o do_v it_o for_o the_o world_n be_v still_o as_o it_o be_v and_o new_a discovery_n by_o art_n or_o the_o death_n and_o birth_n of_o creature_n will_v not_o make_v a_o new_a world_n nor_o destroy_v the_o old_a no_o more_o than_o the_o dissolve_v and_o compose_v of_o several_a part_n will_v make_v new_a matter_n for_o although_o nature_n delight_v in_o variety_n yet_o she_o be_v constant_a in_o her_o groundwork_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a error_n in_o man_n to_o study_v more_o the_o exterior_a face_n and_o countenance_n of_o thing_n than_o their_o interior_a natural_a figurative_a motion_n which_o error_n must_v undoubted_o cause_v great_a mistake_n in_o so_o much_o as_o man_n rule_n will_v be_v false_a compare_v to_o the_o true_a principle_n of_o nature_n for_o it_o be_v a_o false_a maxim_n to_o believe_v that_o if_o some_o creature_n have_v power_n over_o other_o

can_v neither_o be_v single_a action_n or_o single_a perception_n but_o as_o the_o part_n or_o action_n of_o nature_n move_v in_o one_o body_n and_o not_o single_o several_a infinite_a way_n so_o the_o self-active_a part_n in_o one_o compose_v figure_n make_v perception_n of_o those_o several_a composition_n in_o exterior_a object_n but_o since_o my_o opinion_n be_v that_o the_o perception_n of_o the_o exterior_a animal_n sense_n be_v make_v by_o that_o sort_n of_o motion_n which_o be_v call_v imitation_n or_o pattern_v as_o for_o example_n that_o the_o perception_n of_o see_v be_v make_v by_o the_o sensitive_a corporeal_a figurative_a motion_n in_o the_o organ_n of_o sight_n which_o be_v the_o eye_n by_o their_o pattern_v out_o the_o figure_n of_o a_o exterior_a object_n some_o perhaps_o will_v question_v how_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o eye_n as_o also_o a_o glass_n which_o be_v a_o more_o solid_a and_o dense_a body_n than_o a_o eye_n shall_v pattern_n out_o so_o many_o different_a figure_n of_o exterior_a object_n and_o yet_o keep_v their_o own_o figure_n perfect_a to_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o not_o all_o the_o corporeal_a motion_n of_o a_o object_n be_v perceptible_a by_o animal_n sense_n which_o be_v too_o gross_a a_o sort_n of_o perception_n to_o perceive_v they_o all_o for_o can_v we_o say_v that_o air_n light_n earth_n etc._n etc._n have_v no_o other_o motion_n but_o what_o we_o perceive_v we_o observe_v in_o a_o sundial_n that_o the_o light_n remove_v but_o we_o can_v see_v how_o it_o remove_v and_o therefore_o our_o eye_n can_v perceive_v all_o the_o motion_n or_o action_n of_o a_o object_n next_o i_o say_v as_o for_o the_o pattern_n of_o the_o sensitive_a motion_n the_o frame_n of_o they_o be_v no_o hindrance_n to_o those_o motion_n that_o preserve_v the_o organ_n in_o its_o be_v for_o there_o be_v many_o numerous_a and_o different_a sort_n of_o motion_n in_o one_o compose_v figure_n and_o yet_o none_o be_v obstructive_a to_o the_o other_o but_o each_o know_v its_o own_o work_n and_o they_o act_v all_o unanimous_o to_o the_o conservation_n of_o the_o whole_a figure_n also_o when_o some_o action_n change_v it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o they_o must_v all_o change_n at_o the_o same_o time_n for_o if_o it_o be_v so_o there_o will_v be_v no_o difference_n between_o the_o action_n of_o nature_n nor_o no_o difference_n of_o figure_n again_o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o if_o we_o can_v perceive_v the_o figure_n of_o a_o object_n than_o we_o must_v of_o necessity_n perceive_v the_o substance_n also_o figure_n and_o body_n be_v but_o one_o thing_n for_o example_n if_o we_o can_v perceive_v the_o figure_n of_o a_o thought_n we_o must_v also_o perceive_v that_o degree_n of_o matter_n which_o be_v name_v rational_a the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o other_o degree_n of_o matter_n the_o sensitive_a and_o inanimate_a i_o answer_v that_o although_o the_o figure_n be_v perceive_v yet_o the_o degree_n of_o matter_n can_v be_v perceive_v at_o least_o not_o in_o all_o object_n nor_o by_o all_o our_o sensitive_a organ_n for_o though_o the_o eye_n perceive_v light_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o perceive_v what_o light_n be_v make_v of_o neither_o do_v the_o ear_n perceive_v it_o but_o only_o the_o eye_n also_o the_o ear_n perceive_v sound_a yet_o the_o eye_n do_v not_o nor_o do_v the_o ear_n know_v or_o perceive_v the_o proper_a and_o immediate_a motion_n and_o part_n that_o make_v the_o sound_n again_o although_o the_o eye_n or_o rather_o the_o sensitive_a motion_n that_o make_v the_o perception_n of_o sight_n perceive_v the_o light_n of_o fire_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o perceive_v the_o heat_n thereof_o which_o be_v only_o subject_a to_o touch_v the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o smell_n and_o taste_v so_o that_o not_o all_o the_o part_n be_v subject_a to_o one_o sense_n and_o if_o this_o be_v only_o in_o one_o sort_n of_o creature_n what_o difference_n of_o perception_n may_v there_o be_v in_o the_o infinite_a part_n of_o nature_n the_o truth_n be_v our_o humane_a perception_n be_v stint_v so_o that_o we_o can_v perceive_v all_o object_n but_o those_o that_o be_v within_o

for_o though_o all_o action_n of_o nature_n be_v perceptive_a yet_o none_o can_v be_v more_o agile_a and_o active_a than_o the_o rational_a and_o next_o to_o they_o none_o more_o but_o the_o

perception_n as_o we_o observe_v they_o do_v i_o answer_v there_o be_v many_o kind_n and_o sort_n of_o perception_n whereof_o some_o be_v slow_a and_o some_o quick_a than_o other_o according_a to_o the_o several_a degree_n of_o grossness_n and_o purity_n of_o the_o inanimate_a part_n so_o that_o we_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o wonder_v at_o the_o variety_n of_o perception_n and_o how_o some_o

they_o to_o be_v part_n of_o the_o animate_v degree_n last_o some_o may_v say_v that_o although_o the_o sensitive_a degree_n of_o matter_n be_v not_o the_o same_o with_o the_o inanimate_a yet_o they_o

nay_o many_o will_v not_o admit_v of_o rational_a argument_n but_o the_o bare_a authority_n of_o a_o experimental_a philosopher_n be_v sufficient_a to_o they_o to_o decide_v all_o controversy_n &_o

in_o my_o former_a discourse_n i_o have_v declare_v that_o art_n produce_v hermaphroditical_a effect_n that_o be_v such_o as_o be_v partly_o natural_a and_o partly_o artificial_a but_o the_o

if_o they_o be_v something_o else_o beside_o nature_n for_o art_n itself_o be_v natural_a and_o a_o effect_n of_o nature_n and_o can_v produce_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v beyond_o or_o not_o within_o nature_n wherefore_o artificial_a effect_n can_v no_o more_o be_v exclude_v from_o nature_n than_o any_o ordinary_a effect_n or_o creature_n of_o nature_n but_o when_o i_o say_v they_o be_v not_o natural_a i_o understand_v the_o particular_a nature_n of_o every_o creature_n according_a to_o its_o own_o kind_a of_o species_n for_o as_o there_o be_v infinite_a nature_n which_o may_v be_v call_v

her_o own_o self-moving_a body_n so_o there_o be_v also_o particular_a nature_n in_o every_o creature_n which_o be_v the_o innate_a proper_a and_o inherent_a interior_a and_o substantial_a form_n and_o figure_n of_o every_o creature_n according_a to_o their_o own_o kind_n or_o species_n by_o which_o each_o creature_n or_o part_n of_o nature_n be_v discern_v or_o distinguish_v from_o the_o

find_v in_o a_o animal_n as_o be_v in_o a_o vegetable_a a_o animal_n will_v be_v a_o vegetable_a and_o a_o vegetable_a a_o animal_n without_o any_o difference_n and_o after_o this_o rate_n there_o will_v be_v no_o variety_n at_o all_o in_o nature_n but_o self-motion_n act_v diverse_o and_o various_o not_o only_o in_o every_o kind_n and_o species_n but_o in_o every_o particular_a creature_n and_o part_n of_o nature_n cause_v that_o wonderful_a variety_n which_o appear_v every_o where_o even_o to_o our_o admiration_n in_o all_o part_n of_o nature_n but_o to_o return_v to_o artificial_a

be_v deny_v to_o be_v material_a they_o can_v neither_o be_v account_v irrational_a insensible_a or_o inanimate_a by_o reason_n there_o be_v no_o part_n nay_o not_o the_o small_a particle_n in_o

which_o be_v the_o chief_a distinction_n of_o those_o kind_n of_o creature_n as_o be_v subject_a to_o our_o sensitive_a perception_n and_o in_o all_o those_o what_o variety_n and_o difference_n do_v

who_o part_n have_v no_o different_a figure_n but_o be_v all_o alike_o each_o other_o at_o least_o to_o our_o perception_n beside_o there_o be_v body_n which_o be_v more_o rare_a and_o subtle_a than_o other_o according_a to_o the_o degree_n of_o their_o natural_a figurative_a motion_n and_o the_o composion_n of_o their_o part_n nevertheless_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o those_o homogeneous_a body_n shall_v be_v call_v simple_a and_o all_o other_o mix_v or_o compose_v of_o they_o much_o less_o why_o they_o shall_v be_v principle_n of_o all_o other_o natural_a body_n for_o they_o derive_v

proceed_v from_o the_o variety_n of_o self-motion_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o different_a figure_n in_o nature_n for_o as_o several_a workman_n join_v in_o the_o build_n of_o one_o house_n

for_o we_o see_v that_o some_o animal_n be_v produce_v out_o of_o vegetable_n who_o offspring_n be_v not_o any_o way_n like_o their_o producer_n which_o prove_v that_o not_o all_o action_n of_o

etc._n etc._n which_o be_v impossible_a for_o can_v there_o be_v a_o single_a atom_n yet_o that_o atom_n will_v have_v colour_n place_n figure_n magnitude_n etc._n etc._n only_o there_o will_v be_v no_o motion_n for_o want_v of_o part_n and_o consequent_o no_o perception_n but_o my_o meaning_n be_v that_o the_o several_a property_n of_o a_o body_n as_o for_o example_n taste_n touch_v smell_v sound_v be_v perceive_v by_o the_o several_a sense_n of_o animal_n to_o wit_n the_o taste_n by_o the_o tongue_n the_o smell_n by_o the_o nose_n and_o colour_n and_o figure_n by_o the_o eye_n etc._n etc._n it_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v several_a corporeal_a action_n for_o the_o taste_n be_v not_o the_o smell_n nor_o smell_v the_o sound_n nor_o sound_v the_o colour_n nevertheless_o they_o be_v all_o propriety_n of_o the_o same_o body_n and_o no_o more_o dividable_a from_o body_n than_o motion_n be_v from_o body_n or_o body_n from_o matter_n only_o they_o be_v make_v according_a to_o the_o several_a composition_n and_o division_n of_o part_n and_o as_o for_o colour_n place_n magnitude_n figure_n etc._n etc._n as_o i_o say_v before_o can_v there_o be_v a_o atom_n it_o will_v have_v colour_n place_n figure_n and_o though_o part_n be_v change_v million_o of_o way_n yet_o they_o can_v lose_v colour_n place_n and_o figure_n the_o truth_n be_v as_o there_o be_v no_o single_a finite_a part_n in_o nature_n so_o there_o
