By constraint, of course, it may be brought 2 I, 7 | move either naturally or by constraint: and if by constraint, it 3 I, 7 | by constraint: and if by constraint, it possesses also a natural 4 I, 8 | and move naturally and by constraint. A thing moves naturally 5 I, 8 | in which it rests without constraint, and rests naturally in 6 I, 8 | to which it moves without constraint. On the other hand, a thing 7 I, 8 | other hand, a thing moves by constraint to a place in which it rests 8 I, 8 | place in which it rests by constraint, and rests by constraint 9 I, 8 | constraint, and rests by constraint in a place to which it moves 10 I, 8 | place to which it moves by constraint. Further, if a given movement 11 I, 8 | given movement is due to constraint, its contrary is natural. 12 I, 8 | natural. If, then, it is by constraint that earth moves from a 13 I, 8 | there rests here without constraint, its movement hither will 14 I, 8 | mutually contrary, are due to constraint? No, for a body which has 15 I, 8 | at all cannot be moved by constraint. If then the bodies have 16 I, 8 | the other down; nor is it constraint, like the "extrusion" of 17 I, 8 | the end if it were due to constraint or extrusion; for a constrained 18 I, 8 | in speed as the source of constraint becomes more distant, and 19 I, 8 | and a body moves without constraint to the place whence it was 20 I, 8 | place whence it was moved by constraint.~A consideration of these 21 II, 1 | since the movement involves constraint, being imposed on the first 22 II, 9 | of animate nature or of constraint. It is as though nature 23 II, 13| is any natural movement, constraint will not be the sole principle 24 II, 13| rest. If, then, it is by constraint that the earth now keeps 25 II, 13| at the centre is due to constraint; but there must be some 26 II, 14| from the centre except by constraint. For a single thing has 27 II, 14| the downward movement to constraint, and it is better to keep 28 II, 14| than that which it is by constraint and contrary to nature. 29 III, 2 | movement they must move by constraint: and the constrained is 30 III, 2 | somewhere, and there rest not by constraint but naturally. But a natural 31 III, 2 | must cause motion not by constraint but naturally. If there 32 III, 2 | series is always moved by constraint, we shall have an infinite 33 III, 2 | have been due either to constraint or to their nature. And 34 III, 2 | other bodies, moving without constraint, as they came to rest in 35 III, 2 | lightness, must be moved by constraint, and must continue its constrained 36 III, 2 | due either to nature or to constraint, movement which is natural, 37 III, 2 | That is why a body moved by constraint continues to move when that 38 III, 6 | it might move, either by constraint, i.e. unnaturally, or in 39 III, 6 | unnaturally, or in the absence of constraint, i.e. naturally.
