 1      I,  2 |                            2~We suppose ourselves to possess unqualified
 2      I,  6 |        shows how naive it is to suppose one’s basic truths rightly
 3      I,  6 |         knowledge. If, then, we suppose a syllogism in which, though
 4      I,  17|     series of predication; e.g. suppose D to be not only contained
 5      I,  17|         both become false: e.g. suppose that actually all D is A
 6      I,  19|         subjects of predicates. Suppose, then, C such a term not
 7      I,  19|       so that B-C is immediate; suppose further E related immediately
 8      I,  19|         question is as follows: Suppose nothing is essentially predicated
 9      I,  19|    intermediate prior term, and suppose H similarly related to G
10      I,  19|        of middles? I mean this: suppose for example that A inheres
11      I,  20|         infinite in number. For suppose that A is predicated of
12      I,  23|         the subject B, and then suppose A similarly predicable of
13      I,  24|      not therefore compelled to suppose that in these examples it
14      I,  25|        as are posterior, we may suppose two demonstrations of the
15      I,  25|      each complete proof. Thus, suppose no B is A, and all C is
16      I,  26| reductio ad impossibile. Let us suppose that no B is A, and that
17      I,  26|   inheres in C. This we have to suppose a known and admitted impossibility;
