 60      2, VII  |        were good to divide natural philosophy into the mine and the furnace,
 61      2, VII  |           the two parts of natural philosophy— the inquisition of causes,
 62      2, VII  |          true and fruitful natural philosophy hath a double scale or ladder,
 63      2, VII  |         philosophia prima, summary philosophy and metaphysic, which heretofore
 64      2, VII  |           have assigned to summary philosophy the common principles and

 68      2, VII  |             therefore, the natural philosophy of Democritus and some others,
 69      2, VIII |            another part of natural philosophy, which is commonly made
 70      2, VIII |         from any axioms of natural philosophy; and these are two, geometry
 71      2, VIII |         axioms or parts of natural philosophy, and considereth quantity
 72      2, VIII |          part operative of natural philosophy, we will divide it into

 74      2, VIII |    remaineth a division of natural philosophy according to the report

 77      2, VIII |         For it is the harmony of a philosophy in itself, which giveth
 78      2, VIII |        incredible: so is it of any philosophy reported entire, and dismembered
 79      2, VIII |          this calendar of sects of philosophy, as that of Theophrastus
 80      2, VIII |        Donius, being as a pastoral philosophy, full of sense, but of no

 83      2, IX   |           but a portion of natural philosophy in the continent of Nature.

 86      2, IX   |            and forsaken by natural philosophy, it is not much better than
 87      2, IX   |     therefore, we proceed to human philosophy or humanity, which hath

 89      2, X    |       practices are known, but the philosophy that concerneth them is
 90      2, X    |           of that particular human philosophy which concerns the body,
 91      2, XI   |           which are the subject of philosophy; and therefore the true
 92      2, XII  |          for that extendeth to all philosophy), but of such knowledges

 94      2, XII  |       moral.~(2) The part of human philosophy which is rational is of

 96      2, XIV  |          have brought into natural philosophy; not much better than the
 97      2, XX   |           that there was never any philosophy, religion, or other discipline,
 98      2, XX   |        controversies wherein moral philosophy is conversant. For first,

103      2, XXII |           most true; but yet moral philosophy may be preferred unto her
104      2, XXII |     mistress’ will; so ought moral philosophy to give a constant attention
105      2, XXII |       never incorporate into moral philosophy, to which they do essentially
106      2, XXII |           no fit auditors of moral philosophy, because they are not settled
107      2, XXII |         justly; for all good moral philosophy (as was said) is but a handmaid
108      2, XXII |         that general part of human philosophy, which contemplateth man
109      2, XXIII|           so in that respect moral philosophy is more difficile than policy.
110      2, XXIII|          than policy. Again, moral philosophy propoundeth to itself the
111      2, XXIII|       corner-stone of divinity and philosophy, wherein they join close,
112      2, XXIII|       omnia adjicientur vobis: and philosophy saith, Primum quaerite bona

117      2, XXV  |           the truth of all natural philosophy in the Scriptures; scandalising
118      2, XXV  |            and traducing all other philosophy as heathenish and profane.
119      2, XXV  |         and as to seek divinity in philosophy is to seek the living amongst
120      2, XXV  |       amongst the dead, so to seek philosophy in divinity is to seek the
