With regard to this nature the road branches into three. 313 1, XXXVI | the shores.~Again, let the nature investigated be the spontaneous 314 1, XXXVI | the earth.~Again, let the nature in question be that other 315 1, XXXVI | such motion be found in nature, or whether it be not rather 316 1, XXXVI | established, that there may be in nature some such motion. But if 317 1, XXXVI | about it.~Again, let the nature in question be weight or 318 1, XXXVI | either tend of their own nature to the center of the earth, 319 1, XXXVI | of weight.~Again, let the nature investigated be the polarity 320 1, XXXVI | magnet. With regard to this nature the road will branch into 321 1, XXXVI | be made.~Again, let the nature in question be the corporeal 322 1, XXXVI | reflected.~Again, let the nature in question be the motion 323 1, XXXVI | extremities.~Again, let the nature in question be the rapid 324 1, XXXVI | mortars. With respect to this nature the road branches into two 325 1, XXXVI | inflammable, which is the nature of sulphur, the other abhorring 326 1, XXXVI | strength.~Again, let the nature in question be the transitory 327 1, XXXVI | question be the transitory nature of flame and its instantaneous 328 1, XXXVI | instantaneous extinction. For the nature of flame appears to have 329 1, XXXVI | With reference to this nature the roads branch into two, 330 1, XXXVI | thus: the instantaneous nature proceeds either from a cessation 331 1, XXXVI | though able by its own nature to remain with us, suffers 332 1, XXXVI | accustom themselves to judge of nature by instances of the fingerpost 333 1, XXXVII | indicate the separation of a nature from some concrete substance 334 1, XXXVII | indicate the separation of one nature from another. They differ 335 1, XXXVII | the separability of one nature from another. Their use 336 1, XXXVII | investigated be corporeal nature and natural action.

For corporeal nature appears to be no less requisite 339 1, XXXVIII | since all interpretation of nature commences with the senses 340 1, XXXIX | do honor to the works of nature but dishonor to the works 341 1, XL | in the investigations of nature should be sought for on 342 1, XL | reductions.~Thus let the nature in question be the action 343 1, XL | the former.~Thus let the nature in question be the expansion 344 1, XL | is nothing more true in nature than the twin propositions 345 1, XL | 1 to 21 — so limited is nature, or at any rate that part 346 1, XL | had before.~Again, let the nature in question be heat or cold, 347 1, XL | otherwise.~Again, let the nature in question be the mixture 348 1, XL | skillful separations. But the nature of the spirit in them, though 349 1, XL | attempting to imitate or emulate nature, but rather destroying by 350 1, XL | yet the investigation of nature requires that this be done 351 1, XL | that they draw the lines of nature with reference to man and 352 1, XLI | point out the motions of nature in their gradual progress. 353 1, XLI | this matter; for they study nature only by fits and at intervals, 354 1, XLI | with the investigation of nature. For instance, if we are 355 1, XLI | sort of night watch over nature, as showing herself better 356 1, XLIII | dissecting, because they dissect nature.

These measure nature by periods of time, as the 363 1, XLVI | determined and fixed in the nature of things. Even those actions 364 1, XLVI | slowly, according to the nature of the body and motion, 365 1, XLVII | medicine) I also call Doses of Nature. These are they which measure 366 1, XLVII | in all investigation of nature the quantity of body — the 367 1, XLVIII | dimensions suitable to their nature. Of this motion also we 368 1, XLVIII | impelling body more than their nature will bear. Then, indeed, 369 1, XLVIII | toward masses of a like nature with themselves — heavy 370 1, XLVIII | a malignant and contrary nature, whereas in this motion ( 371 1, XLVIII | the absence of a foreign nature to stir up strife.
