 12      I,  8 |         proceeds are commensurately universal, the conclusion of such
 13      I,  8 |       subject is not commensurately universal but temporary and special.

 15      I,  8 |      perishable; not commensurately universal, because the predicate will

 17      I,  10|  illegitimate postulates are either universal or particular, whereas a
 18      I,  11|      possibility we cannot save the universal, and if the universal goes,

 20      I,  11|       science which might attempt a universal proof of axioms such as
 21      I,  13|        often a clear insight into a universal, but through lack of observation
 22      I,  14|          affirmative, but cannot be universal, and essence must have a
 23      I,  14|             and essence must have a universal character: e.g. man is not
 24      I,  16|      neither subordinate to A nor a universal attribute of B: for B, since
 25      I,  16|           need not necessarily be a universal attribute of all things.
 26      I,  16|          found that no syllogism of universal attribution was possible
 27      I,  16|           if C is yet taken to be a universal attribute of all but universally
 28      I,  16|        nevertheless assumed to be a universal attribute of A, but an attribute
 29      I,  16|        non-attributable to A, but a universal attribute of B, the premiss
 30      I,  20|         mean the ascent to the more universal, by "downward" the descent
 31      I,  21|          affirmed of an ever higher universal terminates, the succession
 32      I,  21|          plainly the series of more universal non-predicables will terminate
 33      I,  24|            be either commensurately universal or particular, and either
 34      I,  24|          examine the commensurately universal and the particular forms,
 35      I,  24|           cases. But commensurately universal demonstration, instead of
 36      I,  24|             than the commensurately universal forms demonstrates, particular
 37      I,  24|  demonstration is superior.~(2) The universal has not a separate being
 38      I,  24|        delusory. Now commensurately universal demonstration is of the
 39      I,  24| characteristically commensurate and universal, and less touches reality
 40      I,  24|        follow that commensurate and universal is inferior to particular
 41      I,  24|            more to commensurate and universal than to particular demonstration.
 42      I,  24|            is that commensurate and universal is superior to particular
 43      I,  24|            i.e. if the commensurate universal is unequivocal-then the
 44      I,  24|             is unequivocal-then the universal will possess being not less
 45      I,  24|             perish.~(3) Because the universal has a single meaning, we
 46      I,  24|          other cases of unequivocal universal predication, viz. where
 47      I,  24|             rather the commensurate universal than the particular which
 48      I,  24|     inherence, and the commensurate universal is primary; hence the commensurate
 49      I,  24|              hence the commensurate universal is the cause). Consequently
 50      I,  24|         Consequently commensurately universal demonstration is superior
 51      I,  24|           has become commensurately universal, and so we conclude that
 52      I,  24|        conclude that commensurately universal demonstration is superior.~(
 53      I,  24|       indeterminate manifold, while universal demonstration tends to the
 54      I,  24|        rather in so far as they are universal than in so far as they are
 55      I,  24|          Hence the commensurate and universal form, being more truly demonstration,
 56      I,  24|            possesses commensurately universal demonstration knows the
 57      I,  24|     demonstration does not know the universal. So that this is an additional
 58      I,  24|           preferring commensurately universal demonstration. And there
 59      I,  24|           proof of the commensurate universal as its middle term approaches
 60      I,  24|       dependent. But commensurately universal demonstration is characterized
 61      I,  24|          which it mediated the more universal.~Some of these arguments,
 62      I,  24|        precedence of commensurately universal demonstration is as follows:
 63      I,  24|            to know the commensurate universal either potentially or actually.
 64      I,  24|            Moreover, commensurately universal demonstration is through
 65      I,  25|       superiority of commensurately universal to particular demonstration.
 66      I,  25|          superior may be set out in universal form as follows. Assuming
 67      I,  25|      demonstrative syllogism is the universal immediate premiss, and the
 68      I,  25|          immediate premiss, and the universal premiss asserts in affirmative
 69      I,  31|             which is commensurately universal and true in all cases one
 70      I,  31|   demonstrations are commensurately universal and universals imperceptible,
 71      I,  31|     recognition of the commensurate universal. So if we were on the moon,
 72      I,  31|             not of the commensurate universal. I do not, of course, deny
 73      I,  31|           tracking the commensurate universal, possess a demonstration,
 74      I,  31| demonstration, for the commensurate universal is elicited from the several
 75      I,  31|         singulars.~The commensurate universal is precious because it makes
 76      I,  31|         cause other than themselves universal knowledge is more precious
 77      I,  31|            should have elicited the universal from seeing; if, for example,
 78      I,  33|         knowledge is commensurately universal and proceeds by necessary
 79     II,  2 |         have enabled us to know the universal too; since, the present
 80     II,  2 |           from this would arise the universal.~Thus, as we maintain, to
 81     II,  3 |         nature and is in every case universal and affirmative; whereas,
 82     II,  3 |           negative and some are not universal; e.g. all in the second
 83     II,  3 |     negative, none in the third are universal. And again, not even all
 84     II,  7 |            induction to establish a universal on the evidence of groups
 85     II,  8 |             conclusion proved being universal and affirmative, the proof
 86     II,  12|         first.~Some occurrences are universal (for they are, or come-to-be
 87     II,  12|             is of the nature of the universal. But we have assumed a connexion

 91     II,  13|          the several species to the universal genera-this for the further
 92     II,  13|            so proceed to the common universal with a careful avoidance
 93     II,  16|    connexion to be proved is always universal and commensurate, not only
 94     II,  16|             also the effect will be universal and commensurate. For instance,
 95     II,  16|         single species. So in these universal and commensurate connexions
 96     II,  17|             follows. Deciduous is a universal attribute of vine, and is
 97     II,  17|          subjects. Then B will be a universal attribute of each species
 98     II,  17|            I call such an attribute universal even if it is not commensurate,
 99     II,  17|           call an attribute primary universal if it is commensurate, not
100     II,  18|            proximate to the primary universal, or the middle which is
101     II,  18|         subject’s falling under the universal. To illustrate formally:
102     II,  19|      experience again-i.e. from the universal now stabilized in its entirety
103     II,  19|          made a stand, the earliest universal is present in the soul:
