 2      I,  4 |          it is not true. Essential attributes are (1) such as belong to
 3      I,  4 |          defining any one of these attributes contains its subject-e.g.
 4      I,  4 |        classification to all other attributes, I distinguish those that
 5      I,  4 |       respective subjects; whereas attributes related in neither of these
 6      I,  4 |            sense of that term, all attributes which (within that sphere)
 7      I,  4 |          of any subject, essential attributes must inhere in their subjects
 8      I,  6 |           be other than it is. Now attributes attaching essentially to
 9      I,  6 | necessarily to them: for essential attributes are either elements in the
10      I,  6 |           sense explained: for all attributes must inhere essentially
11      I,  6 |         accidental, and accidental attributes are not necessary to their
12      I,  6 |             Since it is just those attributes within every genus which
13      I,  7 |            the subject-genus whose attributes, i.e. essential properties,
14      I,  9 |     superior science, to which the attributes essentially belong. Thus,
15      I,  10|       these primary truths and the attributes dependent on them the meaning
16      I,  10|       proved of the remainder, the attributes. Thus we assume the meaning
17      I,  10|         assumes, and the essential attributes of which it investigates,
18      I,  10|             but of their essential attributes only the meaning is assumed.
19      I,  10|     whereas the existence of these attributes is demonstrated by means
20      I,  10|      subject genus whose essential attributes it examines; (2) the so-called
21      I,  10|         its demonstration; (3) the attributes, the meaning of which it
22      I,  10|       expressly the meaning of the attributes if it were well understood.
23      I,  10|            three: the subject, the attributes, and the basic premisses.~
24      I,  11|           not the subjects nor the attributes demonstrated as belonging
25      I,  12|     through taking as middles mere attributes of the major and minor terms.
26      I,  12|         premisses predicating mere attributes: but sometimes it is possible,
27      I,  17|                  17~In the case of attributes not atomically connected
28      I,  19|         connexions of subjects and attributes. Thus: since there are attributes
29      I,  19|  attributes. Thus: since there are attributes which are predicated of
30      I,  19|         else but is the subject of attributes, and ascend to infinity?
31      I,  19|         subject has an infinity of attributes or that both subjects and
32      I,  21|          but itself the subject of attributes), or by descending towards
33      I,  22|         the inherence of essential attributes in things. Now attributes
34      I,  22|          attributes in things. Now attributes may be essential for two
35      I,  22|            whole infinite chain of attributes, and be an element in the
36      I,  22|        Hence, since an infinity of attributes such as contain their subject
37      I,  22|            moreover, that all such attributes must so inhere in the ultimate
38      I,  22|          ultimate subject-e.g. its attributes in number and number in
39      I,  22|           and not of wider extent. Attributes which are essential elements
40      I,  22|      impossible. Hence, if all the attributes predicated are essential
41      I,  23|          be one of their essential attributes, the middle terms involved
42      I,  32|            are different, and some attributes attach to quanta and some
43      I,  32|            several kinds and their attributes.~Again, it is not true that
44      I,  33|           hand he apprehends these attributes as inhering in their subjects,
45     II,  3 |        substance, at any rate such attributes are not substances.~It is
46     II,  5 |         that difficulty if all the attributes we assume are constituents
47     II,  6 |      constituted by the "peculiar" attributes of its essential nature; (
48     II,  6 |         such and such are the only attributes of its essential nature,
49     II,  13|         definable form.~Now of the attributes which inhere always in each
50     II,  13|           wider than its genus (by attributes of wider extent mean all
51     II,  13|          all such as are universal attributes of each several subject,
52     II,  13|          number is odd. It is such attributes which we have to select,
53     II,  13|          every triad possesses the attributes number, odd, and prime in
54     II,  13|       sense of the term: for these attributes taken severally apply, the
55     II,  13|          we have shown above’ that attributes predicated as belonging
56     II,  13|           necessary, and since the attributes which we select as inhering
57     II,  13|            any other subject whose attributes we select in this way, are
58     II,  13|            will thus possess these attributes necessarily. Further, that
59     II,  13|           proceed thus because the attributes of the genera compounded
60     II,  13|           infirma species, and the attributes inhere essentially in the
61     II,  13|             the order in which the attributes are predicated does make
