 1 1|         HYL. Because, when any motion is raised in the air, we
 2 1|         according to the air’s motion; but without some motion
 3 1|       motion; but without some motion in the air, we never hear
 4 1|     hear a sound but when some motion is produced in the air,
 5 1|      air.~HYL. It is this very motion in the external air that
 6 1|        vibrative or undulatory motion the air.~PHIL. I thought
 7 1|    sound is really nothing but motion?~HYL. I am.~PHIL. Whatever
 8 1|    with truth be attributed to motion?~HYL. It may.~PHIL. It is
 9 1|    then good sense to speak of MOTION as of a thing that is LOUD,
10 1|       is nothing but a certain motion of the air?~PHIL. It seems
11 1|     And the latter consists in motion?~HYL. I told you so before.~
12 1|         think you, the idea of motion belongs? to the hearing?~
13 1|       only action of bodies is motion; and motion cannot be communicated
14 1|       of bodies is motion; and motion cannot be communicated otherwise
15 1|    being agitated with a brisk motion, and in various manners
16 1|  consequent to each particular motion of the nerves, the mind
17 1|     Figure, Solidity, Gravity, Motion, and Rest; and these they
18 1| despatched, we proceed next to MOTION. Can a real motion in any
19 1|     next to MOTION. Can a real motion in any external body be
20 1|       cannot.~PHIL. Is not the motion of a body swift in a reciprocal
21 1|    another seem to perform its motion over any space in half the
22 1|      necessarily be granted of motion, solidity, and gravity;
23 1|      of extension, figure, and motion affect us with. And, it
24 1|      figure. So likewise as to motion; SWIFT and SLOW are altogether
25 1| because those modifications of motion exist not without the mind,
26 1|        that therefore absolute motion abstracted from them doth
27 1|      it that distinguishes one motion, or one part of extension,
28 1|      extension in general, and motion in general.~HYL. Let it
29 1|       PARTICULAR. How then can motion in general, or extension
30 1|      distinct ABSTRACT IDEA of motion or extension, divested of
31 1|     the ideas of extension and motion from the ideas of all those
32 1|      to consider extension and motion by themselves, abstracted
33 1|       I can pronounce the word MOTION by itself, I can form the
34 1|     the ideas of extension and motion from all other sensible
35 1|       Do they ever represent a motion, or figure, as being divested
36 1|         because I do it by the motion of my hand, which was consequent
37 1|      in treating of figure and motion we concluded they could
38 1| certain succession of time and motion.~HYL. Upon the whole, I
39 1|  senses, or in the posture and motion of our bodies; which indeed
40 2|   connexion is there between a motion in the nerves, and the sensations
41 2|       high arch of heaven. The motion and situation of the planets,
42 2|        belongs to Matter, viz. MOTION.~PHIL. I find you are at
43 2|      are not.~PHIL. But is not MOTION a sensible quality?~HYL.
44 2|        will which produced the motion is active.~PHIL. Now, I
45 2|      the first place, whether, motion being allowed to be no action,
46 2|     that it hath any figure or motion at all, being already convinced,
47 3|     outward physical action or motion, but in the internal deviation
48 3|       do not here perceive any motion of the earth: but it were
49 3|   should not then perceive its motion.~HYL. I understand you;
50 3|       moments or quantities of motion in bodies are in a direct
51 3|    with an equal velocity; the motion therefore of descending
52 3|     cause or principle of that motion, is proportional to the
53 3| principle that the quantity of motion in any body is proportional
54 3|   premise I only mean that the motion is proportional to the velocity,
55 3|       according to the laws of motion? and yet, are they able
56 3|        account, by the laws of motion, for sounds, tastes, smells,
