1 I, 3 | them from the earth.~This a matter which we have already discussed 2 I, 3 | the heavens is, in a sort, matter, and is potentially hot, 3 I, 4 | burns. (This happens because matter catches fire at the sides 4 I, 6 | which it appears. But, as a matter of fact, no planet has been 5 I, 7 | end in itself.~When the matter begins to gather in the 6 I, 7 | actually on them.~Now when this matter gathers in relation to a 7 I, 8 | kind of matter-and of this matter we assert that comets consist. 8 I, 8 | case of the comets when the matter does not form independently 9 I, 8 | appear to be fringed, because matter of this kind follows their 10 I, 8 | same way, a certain kind of matter follows the sun, and we 11 I, 8 | zodiac dissolves this kind of matter because of the motion of 12 I, 8 | for they dissolve such matter too quickly to admit of 13 I, 8 | for these reasons all this matter is continually and ceaselessly 14 I, 8 | greatest circle, and due to the matter secreted". This, as we said 15 I, 8 | revolution of the heavens this matter has always been and is always 16 I, 13| contain the same volume of matter) and, they also cool the 17 II, 2 | But if one considers the matter the solution is easy. The 18 II, 2 | analogous to the residual matter of all food, and especially 19 II, 3 | excreted (along with other matter) an identical substance 20 II, 3 | such a quantity of earthy matter is there in the sea. The 21 II, 4 | same. (Most winds, as a matter of fact, are north winds 22 II, 4 | motion is from above, the matter and the generation of wind 23 II, 6 | a great quantity of such matter. Aparctias, Thrascias, and 24 III, 1 | produced. As far as the matter from which they are developed 25 III, 1 | because of the quantity of matter that was burning. The beams 26 III, 3 | cloud and the condensed matter is uniform and consists 27 III, 6 | and in a sense not. Their matter was that which might have 28 IV, 1 | by these powers into the matter underlying a given thing 29 IV, 1 | a certain ratio to that matter, which is the passive qualities 30 IV, 1 | cold are masters of the matter they generate a thing: if 31 IV, 1 | moist and the dry were their matter, and the operation of the 32 IV, 1 | putrefy, being all of them matter relatively to fire. The 33 IV, 2 | existing natural objects as matter.~Of these concoction is 34 IV, 2 | qualities, which are the proper matter of any given object. For 35 IV, 2 | instance of this, and the matter in boils when it becomes 36 IV, 2 | Concoction ensues whenever the matter, the moisture, is mastered. 37 IV, 2 | moisture, is mastered. For the matter is what is determined by 38 IV, 2 | better of the indeterminate matter.~Things that undergo a process 39 IV, 2 | qualities which are the natural matter of anything.~So much for 40 IV, 3 | heat and cold perfect the matter they determine have not 41 IV, 3 | which gets the better of matter can determine it. So everything 42 IV, 3 | incorporates some of the matter in itself, and some it rejects. 43 IV, 3 | the admixture of some dry matter: water alone of liquids 44 IV, 3 | heat or to excess of the matter to be determined: hence 45 IV, 3 | heat of the indeterminate matter contained in the moisture 46 IV, 3 | cooking. The indeterminate matter, as we said, will be either 47 IV, 3 | inconcoction of the undetermined matter in a body due to lack of 48 IV, 4 | indefinable, because it is a matter of degree, but since all 49 IV, 5 | there are two causes besides matter, the agent and the quality 50 IV, 6 | moisture goes off and the dry matter comes together, but water 51 IV, 6 | goes off in vapour the dry matter thickens and collects. Cold 52 IV, 10| different cause, but the matter of which they are composed 53 IV, 10| out of earth and water as matter. Let us consider, then, 54 IV, 10| qualities and both kinds of matter were involved in the process. 55 IV, 11| that cold is in a sense the matter of bodies. For the dry and 56 IV, 11| the dry and the moist are matter (being passive) and earth 57 IV, 11| is left of them is their matter and that is earth and water. 58 IV, 11| down holds good: if its matter is predominantly water a 59 IV, 12| the homogeneous bodies as matter. All the homogeneous bodies 60 IV, 12| the elements described, as matter, but their essential nature 61 IV, 12| least obvious there where matter predominates most. If you 62 IV, 12| If you take the extremes, matter is pure matter and the essence 63 IV, 12| extremes, matter is pure matter and the essence is pure 64 IV, 12| intermediate between the two are matter or definition in proportion
