Each different distance is a different modification 13 II, XIII | each idea of any different distance, or space, is a simple mode 14 II, XIII | any idea we have of any distance and adding it to the former 15 II, XIII | consider the relation of distance between any two bodies or 16 II, XIII | consider the relation of distance betwixt anything, and any 17 II, XIII | considered as keeping the same distance one with another, and so 18 II, XIII | find anything at the same distance now which it was yesterday, 19 II, XIII | not since changed their distance one with another, and with 20 II, XIII | hath sensibly altered its distance with either of those points, 21 II, XIII | always exactly observe the distance from these precise points, 22 II, XIII | to bear relation, and its distance from which we have some 23 II, XIII | chess-board, which keep the same distance one with another. The chess-board, 24 II, XIII | supposing it kept the same distance with the parts of the neighbouring 25 II, XIII | which have kept the same distance one with another.

And so I doubt not it would 43 II, XIV | of them to have changed distance with some other body, as 44 II, XIV | another, their change of distance is so slow, that it causes 45 II, XIV | not changing perceivable distance with some other bodies as 46 II, XIV | perceive, by the change of distance, that it hath moved, yet 47 II, XIV | uninterrupted sensible change of distance between two bodies, which 48 II, XIV | been lighted up at the same distance of time that it now every 49 II, XIV | it must be at a certain distance), as we suppose it to be 50 II, XIV | Secondly, by observing a distance in the parts of this succession, 51 II, XV | a view of them together.

From such 58 II, XV | sometimes speak of place, distance, or bulk, in the great inane, 59 II, XV | in it, at such a certain distance from any part of the universe.~ 60 II, XV | considered at a certain distance from some other.
