 7      I,  II    |        a very uncertain rule of human practice, and serve but
 8      I,  II    |       but of very little use in human life: since it will amount
 9      I,  II    |       them, if they may, by any human power—such as the will of
10      I,  II    |         and the constitution of human affairs; wherein most men
11      I,  III   |   appear the first instances of human knowledge. But how late
12      I,  III   |     Deity was corporeal, and of human shape: and though we find
13      I,  III   |       most natural discovery of human reason, yet the idea of

17     II,  XI    |        to be the prerogative of human understanding, when it has
18     II,  XI    |       15. The true beginning of human knowledge. And thus I have
19     II,  XI    |         the first beginnings of human knowledge;—whence the mind

23     II,  XXVII |         has revolved in several human bodies; as I once met with
24     II,  XXVII |  declaration of their opinions, human laws not punishing the mad
25     II,  XXVII |    consciousness; and so making human identity to consist in the
26     II,  XXVII |         But then they who place human identity in consciousness
27     II,  XXVII |     mischief he shall do in it. Human laws punish both, with a
28     II,  XXVII |   conscious of what he did, yet human judicatures justly punish
29     II,  XXVIII|        obscurity and confusion. Human actions, when with their

33    III,  III   |       it is beyond the power of human capacity to frame and retain
34    III,  III   |         other strange issues of human birth, carry with them difficulties,
35    III,  V     |      For, to go no further than human actions themselves, if they
36    III,  VI    |        be all men or no, all of human species? it is plain, the
37    III,  VI    |        debated, whether several human foetuses should be preserved

42    III,  IX    | frailties and inconveniences of human nature, sin excepted. And
43    III,  X     |     such is the imperfection of human knowledge,) which they have
44    III,  X     |  brought but small advantage to human life or the societies wherein
