1 I, 1 | substance, as many as they may be. For of things constituted 2 I, 2 | constraint, of course, it may be brought to move with 3 I, 2 | divine than they. But it may also be proved as follows. 4 I, 2 | be proved as follows. We may take it that all movement 5 I, 2 | these grounds, therefore, we may infer with confidence that 6 I, 4 | contrary to the circular may be proved in various ways. 7 I, 4 | opposition in place. Secondly, it may be thought that the same 8 I, 4 | to F on the semicircle G may be opposed to motion from 9 I, 5 | the infinite cannot move may also be shown as follows. 10 I, 6 | bodies which move up and down may be in it, since the one 11 I, 6 | to the smaller. For you may subtract as much as you 12 I, 6 | as before. Again (b) we may assume weights which are 13 I, 6 | mass being infinite you may subtract from it as much 14 I, 6 | finite time. And though you may say that the time of the 15 I, 6 | there is no infinite body may be shown, as we have shown 16 I, 6 | the various cases. But it may also be shown universally, 17 I, 6 | mass is not infinite, it may yet be great enough to admit 18 I, 7 | exist in dispersion, it may be maintained none the less 19 I, 7 | finite or to act upon it may be shown as follows.~(1. 20 I, 7 | perceptible.~The question may also be examined in the 21 I, 8 | mentioned above. For it may be thought that we have 22 I, 8 | the wishes of the mover may select. Thus, too, fire 23 I, 9 | the heaven is eternal. We may begin by raising a difficulty. 24 I, 9 | the particular thing. This may, of course, sometimes be 25 I, 9 | any shape or form has, or may have, more than one particular 26 I, 9 | Hence there either are, or may be, more heavens than one. 27 I, 9 | shape in the matter, and we may allow this to be true. We 28 I, 10| established these distinctions, we may now proceed to the question 29 I, 11| meanings, and though it may make no difference to the 30 I, 11| a process of destruction may cause not to be; and also ( 31 I, 11| destroyed, but in the future may cease to be. For indestructible 32 I, 11| need not trouble us, for we may take it as settled that 33 I, 11| our argument. The maximum may be determined either in 34 I, 12| cubits long", or whatever it may be. For if the time is not 35 I, 12| not always existing.~We may also see in the following 36 II, 1 | the infinity of time, we may convince ourselves not only 37 II, 2 | better way. At the start we may say that, if right and left 38 II, 2 | the perfect body-and each may be called a principle. Above 39 II, 2 | front of depth. Or again we may connect them with the various 40 II, 2 | ourselves. The reference may be to our own right hands, 41 II, 2 | a statue possess; or we may take the contrary spatial 42 II, 2 | two grounds, then, they may fairly be criticized, first, 43 II, 2 | they at its end. Here we may end our discussion of the 44 II, 3 | the centre. (At present we may take this for granted: it 45 II, 4 | Corroborative evidence may be drawn from the bodies 46 II, 5 | ultimate fact behind it. It may seem evidence of excessive 47 II, 5 | best way possible, this may stand as the reason of the 48 II, 6 | irregular motions. The maximum may occur either at the starting-point 49 II, 6 | of both and each), if we may take acceleration to proceed 50 II, 8 | opponents assert and we may consistently admit, inasmuch 51 II, 9 | creates no friction. We may say, then, in this matter 52 II, 10| extremity-with this astronomy may be left to deal, since the 53 II, 12| two difficulties, which may very reasonably here be 54 II, 12| second difficulty which may with equal justice be raised 55 II, 12| any means insoluble. We may object that we have been 56 II, 13| place of philosophy; and one may well wonder that the solutions 57 II, 13| while the whirling movement may have been responsible for 58 II, 13| direction, clearly the same may be supposed to hold of earth. 59 II, 14| movement, our discussion may here end.~Its shape must 60 III, 1 | excellent their theories may otherwise be, anyhow they 61 III, 1 | students of nature. There may be things not subject to 62 III, 1 | these transformations. So we may interpret the statements 63 III, 1 | Discussion of the other views may be postponed. But this last 64 III, 1 | indivisible lines, which we may briefly consider at this 65 III, 1 | For while a heavy thing may always be heavier than something 66 III, 1 | judged absolutely, is small may none the less be larger 67 III, 1 | area. A point, then, if it may be heavy or light, may be 68 III, 1 | it may be heavy or light, may be dense or rare. But the 69 III, 2 | have a natural movement may be shown as follows. They 70 III, 2 | movements are manifold. The same may be shown, from the fact 71 III, 2 | in the void or infinite, may be asked to explain the 72 III, 2 | natural movement of a body may be helped on in the same 73 III, 2 | potentially a certain kind of body may, it is true, become such 74 III, 3 | into which other bodies may be analysed, present in 75 III, 5 | ratios of smaller bodies may be repeated among greater 76 III, 5 | grounds. The reason given may be-more crudely-that the 77 III, 5 | ingeniously-the position may be supported by the following 78 III, 8 | both are in error. These may be the figures best adapted 79 III, 8 | produces heat, though one may do so more than another. 80 III, 8 | grant that these figures may reasonably be supposed to 81 IV, 2 | quantity of earth. They may reply that there is an excess 82 IV, 3 | which they state them. We may begin our own statement 83 IV, 3 | intermediates the relation may be converted, though not 84 IV, 3 | or increase, as the case may be. And since the same thing 85 IV, 4 | with general conviction we may distinguish the absolutely 86 IV, 4 | preponderates over earth and water, may well be lighter than something 87 IV, 4 | whole to which it moves, may be left to another inquiry, 88 IV, 5 | and in that way water also may be drawn up, when the upward
