But the spherical shape, necessitated by this argument, 34 II, 14| the earth is circular in shape, but also that it is a sphere 35 II, 14| earth’s mass is spherical in shape, but also that as compared 36 III, 4 | atomic bodies differ in shape, and there is an infinity 37 III, 5 | them give fire a particular shape, like those who make it 38 III, 5 | who give fire a special shape will have to say that a 39 III, 7 | ways, either by change of shape, as the same wax takes the 40 III, 7 | as the same wax takes the shape both of a sphere and of 41 III, 7 | Generation by change of shape would necessarily involve 42 III, 7 | who gives each element a shape of its own, and makes this 43 III, 8 | general, the attempt to give a shape to each of the simple bodies 44 III, 8 | bodies are often given a shape by the place in which they 45 III, 8 | air.
