A48890 Mr. Locke's reply to the right reverend the Lord Bishop of Worcester's answer to his second letter wherein, besides other incident matters, what his lordship has said concerning certainty by reason, certainty by ideas, and certainty of faith, the resurrection of the same body, the immateriality of the soul, the inconsistency of Mr. Locke's notions with the articles of the Christian faith and their tendency to sceptism [sic], is examined. Locke, John, 1632-1704. 1699 (1699) Wing L2754; ESTC R32483 244,862 490

though_o i_o must_v own_v that_o those_o which_o your_o lordship_n here_o 171-173_a say_v concern_v the_o distinction_n of_o individual_n leave_v it_o as_o much_o in_o the_o dark_a to_o i_o as_o what_o you_o say_v before_o but_o perhaps_o i_o do_v not_o understand_v your_o lordship_n word_n right_a because_o i_o conceive_v that_o the_o principium_fw-la individuationis_fw-la be_v the_o same_o in_o all_o the_o several_a species_n of_o creature_n man_n as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o therefore_o if_o the_o union_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v that_o which_o distinguish_v two_o individual_n in_o the_o humane_a species_n one_o from_o another_o i_o know_v not_o how_o two_o cherry_n or_o two_o atom_n of_o matter_n can_v be_v distinct_a individual_n since_o i_o think_v there_o be_v in_o they_o no_o union_n of_o a_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o upon_o this_o ground_n it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a to_o tell_v what_o make_v the_o soul_n and_o the_o body_n individual_n as_o certain_o
