 1 1|      thoughts, Hylas, if you can conceive a vehement sensation to
 2 1|       purpose, I am at a loss to conceive. Tell me then once more,
 3 1|          are.~PHIL. Can you then conceive it possible that they should
 4 1|        neither is it possible to conceive how a sensation should exist
 5 1|        NOTION of it, or that you conceive it not otherwise than by
 6 1|      asserted that you could not conceive how qualities or accidents
 7 1|         That is to say, when you conceive the real existence of qualities,
 8 1|         qualities, you do withal conceive Something which you cannot
 9 1|       Something which you cannot conceive?~HYL. It was wrong, I own.
10 1|    secondary qualities, so as to conceive them existing by themselves.
11 1|      upon this issue. If you can conceive it possible for any mixture
12 1|           What more easy than to conceive a tree or house existing
13 1|          do at this present time conceive them existing after that
14 1|        it, methought that was to conceive a tree as existing unperceived
15 1|        my own mind. I may indeed conceive in my own thoughts the idea
16 1|          from proving that I can conceive them EXISTING OUT OF THE
17 1|         that you cannot possibly conceive how any one corporeal sensible
18 1|      which you cannot so much as conceive?~HYL. I profess I know not
19 1|          the mind: or if you can conceive anything like them existing
20 1|          is impossible for me to conceive or understand how anything
21 2|     spirits, all that we know or conceive are our own ideas. When,
22 2| impressions in the brain, do you conceive this brain or no? If you
23 2|         is absurd. If you do not conceive it, you talk unintelligibly,
24 2|          and there try if he can conceive how so much as a rock, a
25 2|         himself to see if he can conceive, even in thought, what he
26 2|      explain it to me.~HYL. They conceive that the soul, being immaterial,
27 2|           not only enables us to conceive, but also obliges us to
28 2|         to be no action, you can conceive any action besides volition:
29 2|     whether to say something and conceive nothing be not to talk nonsense:
30 2|    purpose; it not being easy to conceive how the external or absolute
31 2|         exists, you can possibly conceive how you should be affected
32 2|         the world; neither can I conceive, if there be Matter, how
33 2|       that our not being able to conceive a thing is no argument against
34 3|    Philonous: you say you cannot conceive how sensible things should
35 3|          annihilated, cannot you conceive it possible that things
36 3|         mind of God, how can you conceive it possible that things
37 3|         His mind? Or, if you can conceive the mind of God, without
38 3|          may not I be allowed to conceive the existence of Matter,
39 3|         volition, neither. can I conceive volition to be anywhere
40 3|    consider the point, we cannot conceive how any idea, or anything
41 3|      thing the SAME or no, is, I conceive, of small importance. Let
42 3|        sense you may not as well conceive, believing as I do. Since,
43 3|         besides spirits, all you conceive are ideas; and the existence
44 3|          say farther, in case we conceive the creation, as we should
45 3|     nature? None of which can WE conceive, otherwise than as performed
46 3|       this necessary in order to conceive the creation? But you suspect
47 3|       Either you are not able to conceive the Creation on any hypothesis
48 3|        score: or you are able to conceive it; and, if so, why not
49 3|        it be not intelligible, I conceive it to be no notion at all;
50 3|          cannot serve to make us conceive anything. And, I hope it
51 3|      frankly owned you could not conceive it, much less explain anything
52 3|           And in case you cannot conceive it easier by the help of
