 9    I, 11|      gave another account of the matter; how he might have argued,
10    I, 13|       that we believe it to be a matter of fact that, being a man,

12    I, 20|     might be given to a shameful matter, they resolved that an argument

19   II, 6 |      worship even these. But the matter comes to this: that even
20   II, 8 | therefore right, especially in a matter on which the whole plan
21   II, 8 |       having explained the whole matter in the senate, he regained
22   II, 9 |           But I will retrace the matter far back from its source;
23   II, 9 |          that is, a confusion of matter and the elements; but that
24   II, 9 |         is not probable that the matter from which all things arose
25   II, 9 |         prepared for use. But if matter was not made by God, then
26   II, 9 |          probable, he says, that matter was made by God. By what
27   II, 9 |     things which are composed of matter, made matter also. For it
28   II, 9 |         composed of matter, made matter also. For it was neither
29   II, 9 |          probable, he says, that matter has, and always has had,
30   II, 9 |          God. But it may be said matter was never made, like God,
31   II, 9 |       made, like God, who out of matter made this world. In that
32   II, 9 |        either God proceeded from matter, or matter from God. Which
33   II, 9 |        proceeded from matter, or matter from God. Which of these
34   II, 9 | Therefore God did not arise from matter, because a being endued
35   II, 9 |        from a corporeal one; but matter is rather from God. For
36   II, 9 |        of making everything. But matter cannot always have existed,
37   II, 9 |        have an end. Therefore if matter was not made, nothing can
38   II, 9 |        can be made from it, then matter itself can have no existence.
39   II, 9 |       can have no existence. For matter is that out of which something
40   II, 9 |          thing. Therefore, since matter had an end, at the time
41   II, 9 |         its change and end, that matter had a beginning, from whom
42   II, 9 |        much more absurd. "But if matter," he says, "was not made
43   II, 9 |       the statement was made. If matter, he says, was not made by
44   II, 9 |         by providence, than that matter was collected by providence.
45   II, 9 |          providence, because its matter was not made by divine providence;
46   II, 9 |     ought to have concluded that matter also was made bY the Deity.
47   II, 9 |         it is more credible that matter was made by God, because
48   II, 9 |          which he may prove that matter has always existed, which
49   II, 9 |          as to say that both the matter of which the world consists,
50   II, 9 |          world which consists of matter, existed by nature; though
51   II, 10|     ardour and force by mingling matter of moisture and cold, nothing
52   II, 10|        thoroughly understand the matter. Heraclitus said that all
53   II, 11|         were not mistaken in the matter itself, but in the name
54   II, 18|         the present; because the matter is very copious, and to
55   II, 19|       not particularly a serious matter, but as it were a sport
56  III, 3 |         ourselves knowledge in a matter of this kind, which cannot
57  III, 9 |         divine things, reduced a matter of the greatest magnitude

64    V, 7 |       not agree to it. This is a matter of great disputation, why
65    V, 13|     there is some reason in that matter, that it is not without
66    V, 15|       that no one can be just, a matter which is united with true

69    V, 20| uneducated are able, because the matter itself and the truth speaks.
70    V, 20|         they are deceived in the matter of religion itself, so also
71    V, 20|         For nothing is so much a matter of free-will as religion;
72   VI, 6 |          this is not justice the matter itself declares, and Cicero
73   VI, 12|          to himself. And yet the matter comes to this, that whatever
74   VI, 12|        result. Therefore in that matter they discharge the office,
75   VI, 14|       which is truly a very easy matter. For who cannot distinguish

79  VII, 1 |  Democritus, spoke truly in this matter, who said that it had a
80  VII, 4 |        slight error in this very matter, in saying it was not made

85  VII, 22|         appears to them. For the matter is related by the poets
86  VII, 22|    secrets of the truth, yet the matter itself is found to be more
