 1      I,  I    |            need of reason, using of proofs, to make them out and to
 2      I,  II   |          receive them, are manifest proofs that they are not innate,
 3      I,  II   |          presumed to be the evident proofs of other things, are thought
 4     II,  I    |          not always; for this wants proofs. But whether the soul be
 5     II,  I    |       afraid, is to be sure without proofs, and to know without perceiving.
 6     II,  XVII |            our ideas are not always proofs of the existence of things:
 7    III,  V    |              These are too sensible proofs to be doubted; and we shall
 8    III,  IX   |        their thoughts that way, are proofs more than enough, to show
 9    III,  IX   |      Testament are but too manifest proofs of this. Though everything
10     IV,  I    |             conviction, without the proofs. Thus, a man that remembers
11     IV,  II   |        depends on clearly perceived proofs. Those intervening ideas,
12     IV,  II   |          any two others, are called proofs; and where the agreement
13     IV,  II   |           knowledge, by intervening proofs, though it be certain, yet
14     IV,  II   |         between two ideas that need proofs and the use of reason to
15     IV,  II   |     deductions, and the use of many proofs, the memory does not always
16     IV,  III  |      secured, without philosophical proofs of the soul’s immateriality;
17     IV,  III  |            to them the intermediate proofs, which we by single and
18     IV,  III  |      capable of, for the finding of proofs or examining the agreement
19     IV,  IV   |           so. It would require some proofs to persuade one of it. No
20     IV,  VII  |       Little use of these maxims in proofs where we have clear and
21     IV,  VII  |            these maxims (brought as proofs to establish propositions,
22     IV,  X    |       forbid us to hearken to those proofs, as being weak or fallacious,
23     IV,  XII  |        capacity. The art of finding proofs, and the admirable methods
24     IV,  XIV  |       demonstrative evidence in the proofs. The mind sometimes exercises
25     IV,  XIV  |      necessity, where demonstrative proofs and certain knowledge are
26     IV,  XIV  |           demonstrative and certain proofs are to be had. Men often
27     IV,  XIV  |           on, or wholly pass by the proofs; and so, without making
28     IV,  XV   |             agreement upon fallible proofs. As demonstration is the
29     IV,  XV   |         intervention of one or more proofs, which have a constant,
30     IV,  XV   | disagreement by the intervention of proofs, whose connexion is not
31     IV,  XV   |         which there be arguments or proofs to make it pass, or be received
32     IV,  XV   |             true, upon arguments or proofs that are found to persuade
33     IV,  XVI  |         memories, to retain all the proofs which, upon a due examination,

38     IV,  XVI  |            that there are no latent proofs undiscovered, which may
39     IV,  XVI  |            collect together all the proofs concerning most of the opinions
40     IV,  XVI  |             certain and indubitable proofs of their truth; and it carries
41     IV,  XVI  |           That as the arguments and proofs pro and con, upon due examination,
42     IV,  XVI  |          sense, be only on probable proofs, our assent can reach no
43     IV,  XVI  |         apparent probability of the proofs. But of faith, and the precedency

49     IV,  XVII |          that is the finding out of proofs, and making new discoveries.
50     IV,  XVII |          reasoning discovers no new proofs, but is the art of marshalling
51     IV,  XVII |            finding several of those proofs to be something more than

65     IV,  XX   |           proofs. First, By want of proofs, I do not mean only the
66     IV,  XX   |         mean only the want of those proofs which are nowhere extant,
67     IV,  XX   |          but the want even of those proofs which are in being, or might
68     IV,  XX   |         procured. And thus men want proofs, who have not the convenience

75     IV,  XX   |            such probabilities whose proofs do exist, but do not appear
76     IV,  XX   |     probability rests: wherein some proofs in matter of reason, being
