Book,  Chapter

  1   Read         |           and ignorance will be, I suppose, some service to human understanding;
  2   Read         |            in my First Book. For I suppose by the “soul’s exerting
  3   Read         |        being exerted are—he will I suppose find there is so little
  4    Int         |          and where they fail us, I suppose it may be of use to prevail
  5      I,  I     |            would be impertinent to suppose the ideas of colours innate
  6      I,  I     |          ever so extravagant as to suppose innate. This I hope to make
  7      I,  I     |           difference between those suppose innate and other truths
  8      I,  I     |            innate, this will be to suppose all our ideas of colours,
  9      I,  I     |            the soul, (as these men suppose,) can have no dependence
 10      I,  I     |          speculative maxims can (I suppose), with better right pretend
 11      I,  II    |        strange and unreasonable to suppose innate practical principles,
 12      I,  II    |            than a contradiction to suppose, that whole nations of men
 13      I,  II    |        with an innate law they can suppose an innate Gospel too. I
 14      I,  III   |      perpetual uncertainty. For, I suppose every one’s idea of identity
 15      I,  III   |      distinct notion of it. And, I suppose, there cannot be anything
 16      I,  III   |           it had never been there. Suppose a child had the use of his
 17      I,  III   |           not him a philosopher, I suppose it will hardly make anybody
 18     II,  I     |           examined already; and, I suppose what I have said in the
 19     II,  I     |            reflection. Let us then suppose the mind to be, as we say,
 20     II,  I     |         yet it is not necessary to suppose that it should be always
 21     II,  I     |        their opinions may not only suppose what is in question, but
 22     II,  I     |        nothing of all this. Let us suppose, then, the soul of Castor,
 23     II,  I     |          body. Let us then, I say, suppose the soul of Castor separated
 24     II,  I     |             to think apart. Let us suppose, too, that it chooses for
 25     II,  I     |        between them, which we will suppose to sleep and wake by turns;
 26     II,  I     |           not conscious of. For, I suppose nobody will make identity
 27     II,  I     |       twentieth year of his age. I suppose the world affords more such
 28     II,  I     |           it, we shall not find, I suppose, the motion of dull and
 29     II,  I     |       moment,” very improbable. To suppose the soul to think, and the
 30     II,  VIII  |        peas or hail-stones;—let us suppose at present that the different
 31     II,  IX    |            which we may reasonably suppose may be introduced into the
 32     II,  IX    |            since; and it is this:—“Suppose a man born blind, and now
 33     II,  IX    |            cube, which the sphere. Suppose then the cube and sphere
 34     II,  IX    |      follows upon sensation: yet I suppose it is all bare mechanism;
 35     II,  X     |          him. And therefore we may suppose it one of those ways, wherein
 36     II,  XI    |            little. In this also, I suppose, brutes come far short of
 37     II,  XI    |         therefore, I think, we may suppose, that it is in this that
 38     II,  XIII  |         reason will be as valid, I suppose, to prove that space is
 39     II,  XIII  |        external hindrance; (for we suppose him alive, with such a power
 40     II,  XIII  |          part of matter. No one, I suppose, will deny that God can
 41     II,  XIII  |       nature. And therefore, if we suppose not the void space necessary
 42     II,  XIV   |            pleases, and he will, I suppose, find it difficult to keep
 43     II,  XIV   |           certain distance), as we suppose it to be 5639 years from
 44     II,  XIV   |           certainly the liberty to suppose it, as well as any one hath
 45     II,  XIV   |            well as any one hath to suppose the contrary; and I doubt
 46     II,  XIV   |          proceed in infinitum, and suppose a duration exceeding as
 47     II,  XV    |         reserve that many admit or suppose the infinity of space. The
 48     II,  XV    |            which alone we commonly suppose it an attribute. And, therefore,
 49     II,  XV    |            we upon any occasion do suppose equal to certain lengths
 50     II,  XV    |      determined. For, if we should suppose the creation, or fall of
 51     II,  XV    |     undistinguished duration as we suppose equal to, and would have
 52     II,  XV    |             as a cubic foot; or do suppose a point in it, at such a
 53     II,  XV    |           two distinct ideas is, I suppose, scarce to be found in all
 54     II,  XVI   |         number; which inability, I suppose, proceeded from their want
 55     II,  XVII  |           comes here in our way, I suppose I may say, that we are apt
 56     II,  XVII  |            be ever able to find or suppose any end of it, or be stopped
 57     II,  XVII  |            a space infinite, is to suppose the mind already passed
 58     II,  XVII  |          still finite; but when we suppose an inexhaustible remainder,
 59     II,  XVII  |         hath of Eternity; which, I suppose, will find to be nothing
 60     II,  XVII  |            stans of the schools, I suppose they will thereby very little
 61     II,  XVII  |          reason of which mistake I suppose to be this—that finding,
 62     II,  XVII  |            duration past? Though I suppose nobody thinks it conceivable
 63     II,  XVIII |       names. The reason whereof, I suppose, has been this,—That the

 65     II,  XXI   |           an agent, or at least to suppose it, since freedom can properly
 66     II,  XXI   |             if it be reasonable to suppose and talk of faculties as
 67     II,  XXI   |            their operating, has, I suppose, as little advanced our

 69     II,  XXI   |           are raised about them, I suppose a great part of the difficulties
 70     II,  XXI   |     unattainable: that would be to suppose an intelligent being designedly
 71     II,  XXI   |          wish and desire: could we suppose their relishes as different
 72     II,  XXI   |           what either has, or they suppose has none. The relish of
 73     II,  XXII  |            and reflection; which I suppose I have done.  ~
 74     II,  XXIII |           we accustom ourselves to suppose some substratum wherein
 75     II,  XXIII |             nor one in another, we suppose them existing in and supported
 76     II,  XXIII |     distinct idea of that thing we suppose a support.~5. As clear an
 77     II,  XXIII |            not in loco, but ubi; I suppose that way of talking will
 78     II,  XXIII |            considering man will, I suppose, be here at a loss to satisfy
 79     II,  XXIII |          we cannot but necessarily suppose they have such a power.~
 80     II,  XXVII |            is applied: v.g. let us suppose an atom, i.e. a continued
 81     II,  XXVII |     capable to attain. If we would suppose this machine one continued
 82     II,  XXVII |            make different persons. Suppose a Christian Platonist or
 83     II,  XXVII |        calls himself: let him also suppose it to be the same soul that
 84     II,  XXVII |            will still be objected,—Suppose I wholly lose the memory
 85     II,  XXVII |            consciousness.~Could we suppose two distinct incommunicable
 86     II,  XXVII |       various substances. Could we suppose any spirit wholly stripped
 87     II,  XXVII |          be no absurdity at all to suppose that the same soul may at
 88     II,  XXVII |        time one man: as well as we suppose a part of a sheep’s body
 89     II,  XXVIII|        would be utterly in vain to suppose a rule set to the free actions
 90     II,  XXVIII|         will, we must, wherever we suppose a law, suppose also some
 91     II,  XXVIII|         wherever we suppose a law, suppose also some reward or punishment
 92     II,  XXIX  |           will be obscure. This, I suppose, needs no application to
 93     II,  XXXI  |         this part of the world) do suppose certain specific essences
 94     II,  XXXI  |           at all; and, I am apt to suppose, others, when they examine
 95     II,  XXXII |          annexed to it.~8. How men suppose that their ideas must correspond
 96     II,  XXXII |         that men are so forward to suppose, that the abstract ideas
 97    III,  II    |        ideas of his own, he cannot suppose them to correspond with
 98    III,  II    |          other things.~First, They suppose their words to be marks
 99    III,  II    |            language; in which they suppose that the idea they make
100    III,  II    |          are; therefore they often suppose the words to stand also
101    III,  II    |      readily, that they are apt to suppose a natural connexion between
102    III,  III   |          real essences, he will, I suppose, be at a loss: and he will
103    III,  III   |           two sorts of essences, I suppose, may not unfitly be termed,
104    III,  III   |            for they know not what, suppose a certain number of those
105    III,  VI    |    essences of substances, we only suppose their being, without precisely
106    III,  VI    |       present before us; yet if we suppose it to be done by their real
107    III,  VI    |         kinneah and niouph. Let us suppose Adam, in the state of a
108    III,  VI    |         must follow, that men must suppose the same word to signify
109    III,  X     |           do most commonly tacitly suppose or intend, they should stand
110    III,  X     |           of a man; it is plain we suppose the name man in this case
111    III,  X     |         minds refer that name, and suppose it annexed to a real immutable
112    III,  X     |         species man, if we did not suppose that there were such a specific
113    III,  X     |            in, that they forwardly suppose one cannot but understand
114    III,  XI    |     leading qualities, to which we suppose the other ideas which make
115     IV,  I     |    agreement or disagreement is, I suppose, contained all the knowledge
116     IV,  II    |            apply them right, is, I suppose, that which is called sagacity.~
117     IV,  III   |            than a contradiction to suppose matter (which is evidently
118     IV,  III   |          are clear in us, would, I suppose, if duly considered and
119     IV,  III   |         from what has been said, I suppose will be found to be these
120     IV,  III   |          with another, has been, I suppose, the ill use of words. It
121     IV,  IV    |            very proposing it is, I suppose, enough to make them disown
122     IV,  V     |        reasoning, we shall find, I suppose, that when we make any propositions
123     IV,  VI    |       ideas with names to them. To suppose that the species of things
124     IV,  VII   |            in these maxims, and to suppose them to be praecognita.
125     IV,  VII   |        knowledge, introduced, as I suppose, the like use of these maxims
126     IV,  VII   |         than another. He that will suppose it does, takes away the
127     IV,  VIII  |     affirmed of the term man:—v.g. suppose a Roman signified by the
128     IV,  X     |        senselessly arrogant, as to suppose man alone knowing and wise,
129     IV,  X     |        unreasonable, or that could suppose so manifest a contradiction,
130     IV,  X     |      itself produce matter. Let us suppose any parcel of matter eternal,
131     IV,  X     |       nothing. For example: let us suppose the matter of the next pebble
132     IV,  X     |       motion in itself. But let us suppose motion eternal too: yet
133     IV,  X     |            do. So that, if we will suppose nothing first or eternal,
134     IV,  X     |           never begin to be: if we suppose bare matter without motion,
135     IV,  X     |           never begin to be: if we suppose only matter and motion first,
136     IV,  X     |      material or no. But herein, I suppose, lies the danger and deceit
137     IV,  X     |           matter and thinking, and suppose no necessary connexion of
138     IV,  X     |         cogitative Being, and they suppose it to no purpose.~14. Not
139     IV,  X     |            matter, thinks? This, I suppose, they will scarce say; since
140     IV,  X     | materialists stick at; for if they suppose one single thinking atom
141     IV,  X     |      though ever so absurd. For to suppose all matter eternal, and
142     IV,  X     |      absurd than the other: for to suppose the eternal thinking Being
143     IV,  XI    |             But wheresoever we can suppose such a creature as man is,
144     IV,  XII   |          other sciences, was (as I suppose) the good success it seemed
145     IV,  XII   |         seriously reflect on it, I suppose it will appear past doubt,
146     IV,  XII   |          any knowledge about them. Suppose but a man not to have a
147     IV,  XII   |             by their assistance, I suppose, scarce ever come to know
148     IV,  XVII  |            as true, i.e. to see or suppose such a connexion of the
149     IV,  XVII  |        fence with the knowledge we suppose we have. But let it help
150     IV,  XVII  |          contrary to reason, is, I suppose, sometimes taken.~24. Reason
151     IV,  XIX   |         called light and seeing, I suppose it is at most but belief
152     IV,  XIX   |       these two ways, they in vain suppose it to be a revelation. For
153     IV,  XX    |            be very various, yet, I suppose may all be reduced to these
154     IV,  XX    |          forwardly believed, is, I suppose, what every one hath more
