 1 1|           mine, or in that of some spirit of another kind?~HYL. I
 2 2|        otherwise than in a mind or spirit. Whence I conclude, not
 3 2|            an infinite omnipresent Spirit who contains and supports
 4 2|          the immediate object of a spirit’s thought. Besides the Divine
 5 2|    otherwise than in the mind of a Spirit. Besides all which it hath
 6 2|             anything but a mind or spirit? This indeed is inconceivable.
 7 2|            in and be produced by a spirit; since this is no more than
 8 2|            the will of an infinite Spirit. And is not all this most
 9 2|           that God, or an infinite Spirit, is the Supreme Cause of
10 2|           of our ideas, other than SPIRIT, is highly absurd and unreasonable?~
11 2|        suppose that an All-perfect Spirit, on whose Will all things
12 2|          The will of an Omnipotent Spirit is no sooner exerted than
13 2|          and being perceived, from Spirit and idea: lastly, where
14 3|         either of God or any other spirit; for these being active,
15 3| nevertheless know that I, who am a spirit or thinking substance, exist
16 3|      colour, or a sound. The Mind, Spirit, or Soul is that indivisible
17 3|         that no idea can be like a spirit. We have therefore no idea
18 3|           therefore no idea of any spirit. You admit nevertheless
19 3|      either admit Matter or reject Spirit. What say you to this?~PHIL.
20 3|           be said of the notion of Spirit. That ideas should exist
21 3|            that I have a notion of Spirit, though I have not, strictly
22 3|          of ideas, that is, that a spirit knows and perceives ideas.
23 3|          no parity of case between Spirit and Matter.~HYL. I own myself
24 3|         imprinted on the mind by a spirit distinct from us, have not
25 3|       corporeal causes; but that a Spirit is the immediate cause of
26 3|     wherein ideas can exist beside spirit is to me evident. And that
27 3|  SUBSTRATUM of those qualities but spirit; in which they exist, not
28 3|          call MATTER, and you call SPIRIT. This is all the difference.~
29 3|           distinct from Matter and Spirit. For what reason is there
30 3|       there why you should call it Spirit? Does not the notion of
31 3|             Does not the notion of spirit imply that it is thinking,
32 3|            to be anywhere but in a spirit: therefore, when I speak
33 3|             I am obliged to mean a Spirit. Beside, what can be plainer
34 3|         ideas, surely it must be a Spirit. To make you comprehend
35 3|        Being. I will have it to be Spirit, you Matter, or I know not
36 3|             Thus, I prove it to be Spirit. From the effects I see
37 3|          strictest sense a mind or spirit. The powerful cause, therefore,
38 3|       strict propriety of speech a SPIRIT.~HYL. And now I warrant
39 3|           not said that Being is a Spirit, and is not that Spirit
40 3|            Spirit, and is not that Spirit God?~PHIL. I grant it.~HYL.
41 3|     perceivable. But God is a Pure Spirit, disengaged from all such
42 3|            inactive, operates on a spirit: that the least particle
43 3|     nothing, by the mere will of a Spirit, hath been looked upon as
44 3|           else but IDEAS; God is a SPIRIT, but Matter an unintelligent,
45 3|  substances so widely different as SPIRIT AND MATTER, should mutually
46 3|            in a strict sense, than SPIRIT. But I have been so long
