An element, on the other hand, is that 21 VIII, 3 | something which is neither an element in the whole nor a compound, 22 VIII, 6 | But if, as we say, one element is matter and another is 23 VIII, 6 | formula there is always an element of matter as well as one 24 X, 1 | application. This is also true of "element" or "cause", if one had 25 X, 1 | For in a sense fire is an element (and doubtless also "the 26 X, 1 | is by its own nature the element), but in a sense it is not; 27 X, 1 | to be fire and to be an element, but while as a particular 28 X, 1 | nature of its own fire is an element, the name "element" means 29 X, 1 | is an element, the name "element" means that it has this 30 X, 7 | which the genus is not an element, or else be themselves incomposite.) 31 X, 8 | in which the genus is an element in a thing’s nature), nor 32 X, 9 | are less so.
