1 III, 1 | incomplete; (4) in respect of locomotion, upwards and downwards or 2 III, 1 | what can be carried along, locomotion.~Examples will elucidate 3 III, 5 | if a body has a natural locomotion towards the centre if it 4 IV, 1 | of place, which we call "locomotion".~The question, what is 5 IV, 4 | what can be moved by way of locomotion.)~Place is thought to be 6 IV, 5 | movable either by way of locomotion or by way of increase is 7 IV, 6 | that change in place (i.e. locomotion and increase) would not 8 IV, 8 | simple bodies has a natural locomotion, e.g. fire upward and earth 9 IV, 8 | that is the condition of locomotion. What, then, will the void 10 IV, 8 | privation of being), but natural locomotion seems to be differentiated, 11 IV, 8 | then, nothing has a natural locomotion, or else there is no void.~ 12 IV, 8 | quicker than the natural locomotion of the projectile wherewith 13 IV, 8 | displaced-always either down, if its locomotion is downwards as in the case 14 IV, 9 | comes round in a circle; but locomotion is not always circular, 15 IV, 9 | the rare are productive of locomotion in virtue of this contrariety, 16 IV, 9 | impassivity, i.e. not of locomotion but rather of qualitative 17 IV, 11 | of that which is moved, locomotion because of that which is 18 IV, 11 | the moving body and its locomotion involve each other mutually, 19 IV, 11 | body and the number of its locomotion. For the number of the locomotion 20 IV, 11 | locomotion. For the number of the locomotion is time, while the "now" 21 IV, 11 | correspondence with the locomotion and the moving body. For 22 IV, 11 | body. For the motion or locomotion is made one by the thing 23 IV, 14 | movement; e.g. in the case of locomotion, if both things move along 24 IV, 14 | other not, and one may be locomotion and the other alteration; 25 IV, 14 | there is such a thing as locomotion, and in locomotion there 26 IV, 14 | thing as locomotion, and in locomotion there is included circular 27 IV, 14 | being can be regular, but locomotion can be. This also is why 28 IV, 14 | measure of this kind of locomotion and is itself measured by 29 V, 2 | or other of these, e.g. locomotion will have to be altered 30 V, 2 | it by the general name of locomotion, though strictly the term " 31 V, 2 | though strictly the term "locomotion" is applicable to things 32 V, 4 | may be assigned: thus any locomotion is one generically with 33 V, 4 | generically with any other locomotion, whereas alteration is different 34 V, 4 | different generically from locomotion.~Motion is one specifically 35 V, 4 | consecutive but not continuous locomotion: for according to our definition 36 V, 4 | regular alteration, and locomotion in a regular path, e.g. 37 V, 4 | degree, as is the case with locomotion in a broken line: and a 38 V, 4 | composed of alteration and locomotion be regular? If a motion 39 V, 5 | Similarly we have upward locomotion and downward locomotion, 40 V, 5 | locomotion and downward locomotion, which are contrary lengthwise, 41 V, 5 | are contrary lengthwise, locomotion to the right and locomotion 42 V, 5 | locomotion to the right and locomotion to the left, which are contrary 43 V, 5 | breadthwise, and forward locomotion and backward locomotion, 44 V, 5 | locomotion and backward locomotion, which too are contraries. 45 V, 6 | contrariety; and upward locomotion belongs naturally to fire 46 V, 6 | least concomitant with the locomotion of a thing to its proper 47 VI, 7 | traversing the infinite either by locomotion over it or by measuring 48 VI, 7 | be so likewise: for all locomotion is in space.~ 49 VI, 8 | conclusion that that which is in locomotion is at rest.~ 50 VI, 9 | and if that which is in locomotion is always occupying such 51 VI, 9 | ground that that which is in locomotion must arrive at the half-way 52 VI, 10 | motion in consequence of the locomotion of the boat, or a part may 53 VI, 10 | loss of such magnitude. Locomotion, it is true, we cannot show 54 VI, 10 | assumed that that which is in locomotion is in process of changing, 55 VI, 10 | infinite, and it will not be in locomotion over an infinite distance, 56 VI, 10 | sense; e.g. if a process of locomotion be succeeded by a process 57 VI, 10 | single exception of rotatory locomotion.~ ~ 58 VII, 1 | case in which a thing is in locomotion and is moved by something 59 VII, 2 | movent, that which causes locomotion, that which causes alteration, 60 VII, 2 | decrease.~Let us begin with locomotion, for this is the primary 61 VII, 2 | motion. Everything that is in locomotion is moved either by itself 62 VII, 2 | there are four kinds of locomotion caused by something other 63 VII, 2 | and twirling. All forms of locomotion are reducible to these. 64 VII, 2 | violent than the natural locomotion of the thing moved, which 65 VII, 2 | off. All other kinds of locomotion must be similarly reduced, 66 VII, 2 | will be evident that in all locomotion there is nothing intermediate 67 VII, 2 | therefore, that in all locomotion there is nothing intermediate 68 VII, 4 | and another accomplishes a locomotion in an equal time, we may 69 VII, 4 | have an alteration and a locomotion equal to one another: thus 70 VII, 4 | equal to or less than a locomotion: and consequently it is 71 VII, 4 | applied to alteration and to locomotion.~Or shall we in the first 72 VII, 4 | of a body’s length and a locomotion is accomplished the other 73 VII, 4 | alteration is equal to the locomotion and of the same velocity? 74 VII, 4 | velocity if they accomplish locomotion over an equal distance in 75 VII, 4 | reason of this? Is it that locomotion is a genus or that line 76 VII, 4 | specifically from one another: for locomotion is specifically differentiated 77 VII, 4 | as the instrument of the locomotion is different: thus if feet 78 VII, 4 | case the differences in the locomotion are merely differences of 79 VII, 4 | there would be unity of locomotion under like conditions. So 80 VII, 4 | are of alteration and of locomotion respectively. Now if the 81 VIII, 1 | local change that is in locomotion: and so there must be something 82 VIII, 2 | all of its motions but its locomotion. So it may well be the case-or 83 VIII, 3 | Again, in the matter of locomotion, it would be a strange thing 84 VIII, 4 | possesses the power of upward locomotion, it is clear that it should 85 VIII, 4 | possess the power of downward locomotion. Moreover if things move 86 VIII, 5 | and that which is causing locomotion in process of locomotion, 87 VIII, 5 | locomotion in process of locomotion, or else that which is making 88 VIII, 5 | let us say, in process of locomotion, and that which is causing 89 VIII, 5 | and that which is causing locomotion in process of, say, increase. 90 VIII, 5 | that that which is causing locomotion is in process of increase, 91 VIII, 5 | alteration is in process of locomotion, we do no more than if we 92 VIII, 5 | that that which is causing locomotion is in process of locomotion, 93 VIII, 5 | locomotion is in process of locomotion, and that one who is teaching 94 VIII, 5 | undergo and cause the same locomotion or alteration: thus it would 95 VIII, 6 | experience more than one locomotion.)~And further, if there 96 VIII, 7 | this last, which we call locomotion, that must be primary. This 97 VIII, 7 | cannot have this without locomotion. If, therefore, there must 98 VIII, 7 | there must also always be locomotion as the primary motion, and, 99 VIII, 7 | from a secondary form of locomotion, it must be the primary 100 VIII, 7 | will be clearly seen that locomotion is primary. As in the case 101 VIII, 7 | can be continuous except locomotion, locomotion must be primary. 102 VIII, 7 | continuous except locomotion, locomotion must be primary. For there 103 VIII, 7 | necessity for the subject of locomotion to be the subject either 104 VIII, 7 | first movent.~Secondly, locomotion must be primary in time: 105 VIII, 7 | thing that has a becoming, locomotion must be the last of its 106 VIII, 7 | alteration and increase, and locomotion is a motion that belongs 107 VIII, 7 | else that is in process of locomotion to be the cause even of 108 VIII, 7 | in order can be prior to locomotion. By the motions next in 109 VIII, 7 | even becoming is prior to locomotion, then no one of the other 110 VIII, 7 | process of becoming acquire locomotion last. It is this that accounts 111 VIII, 7 | in which things possess locomotion corresponds to the degree 112 VIII, 7 | character less in the process of locomotion than in any other kind of 113 VIII, 7 | foregoing arguments that locomotion is the primary motion. We 114 VIII, 7 | now to show which kind of locomotion is primary. The same process 115 VIII, 7 | considerations that no other than locomotion can be continuous. Every 116 VIII, 8 | everything that is in process of locomotion is either rotatory or rectilinear 117 VIII, 8 | it is plain that if the locomotion of a thing is rectilinear 118 VIII, 8 | finite it is not continuous locomotion: for the thing must turn 119 VIII, 8 | but also in the case of locomotion in a circle (which is not 120 VIII, 8 | the same thing as rotatory locomotion: for, when a thing merely 121 VIII, 8 | when A in the course of its locomotion comes to a stand at B and 122 VIII, 8 | that A in the course of its locomotion will always be coming to 123 VIII, 8 | that which is in process of locomotion, B, the middle-point, serves 124 VIII, 8 | A proceeds in continuous locomotion from the extreme point of 125 VIII, 8 | is proceeding in uniform locomotion and with the same velocity 126 VIII, 8 | suppose H in the course of its locomotion proceeds to D and then turns 127 VIII, 8 | point in the course of its locomotion, have been previously also 128 VIII, 8 | previously also in process of locomotion to that point, if it is 129 VIII, 8 | have been in process of locomotion to B, and that not merely 130 VIII, 8 | that a thing proceeds in locomotion from A to G and that at 131 VIII, 8 | Then when it is undergoing locomotion from A to G it is at the 132 VIII, 8 | time undergoing also its locomotion to A from G: consequently 133 VIII, 8 | that which is undergoing locomotion from A to G cannot also 134 VIII, 8 | simultaneously be undergoing locomotion from G to A: and since the 135 VIII, 8 | A: and since the latter locomotion is not simultaneous with 136 VIII, 8 | continuity except rotatory locomotion.~ 137 VIII, 9 | rotation is the primary locomotion. Every locomotion, as we 138 VIII, 9 | primary locomotion. Every locomotion, as we said before, is either 139 VIII, 9 | consists. Moreover rotatory locomotion is prior to rectilinear 140 VIII, 9 | is prior to rectilinear locomotion, because it is more simple 141 VIII, 9 | no other motion, whether locomotion or motion of any other kind, 142 VIII, 9 | that which is in process of locomotion can be in a state of rest 143 VIII, 9 | its course, because in its locomotion it is proceeding always 144 VIII, 9 | regular. In rectilinear locomotion the motion of things in 145 VIII, 9 | determined from elsewhere.~As to locomotion being the primary motion, 146 VIII, 9 | accounted for by "void" is locomotion, and its sphere of operation 147 VIII, 10| arises in connexion with locomotion.
