 4      I, 4 |           indefinite.~Nor when the major premiss is universal, whether
 5      I, 4 |            not all C is B. For the major term may be predicable both

 7      I, 5 |         related universally to the major whether positively or negatively,
 8      I, 5 |           be negative, and let the major premiss be universal, e.g.
 9      I, 5 |           affirmative, and let the major premiss as before be universal,
10      I, 6 |        mean the predicates, by the major extreme that which is further
11      I, 6 |          other affirmative, if the major is negative, the minor affirmative,
12      I, 6 |           belong.~But whenever the major is affirmative, no syllogism
13      I, 6 |            universal, whenever the major is negative and the minor

16      I, 9 |       necessary, but only when the major is, e.g. if A is taken as

19      I, 10|        figure that if the negative major premiss is not necessary

21      I, 14|         other particular, when the major premiss is universal there
22      I, 14|      universal is affirmative, the major still being universal and
23      I, 14|          the beginning.~But if the major premiss is the minor universal,
24      I, 14|      premisses are as assumed, the major term is both possible for

27      I, 14|            both necessary that the major should belong to all the

31      I, 15|     relations are negative, if the major premiss states that A does

33      I, 15|           before. But whenever the major premiss is universal, but

35      I, 15|      premiss is universal, and the major particular, whether either
36      I, 15|           evident then that if the major premiss is universal, a
37      I, 16|       assertoric negative. For the major premiss was problematic,
38      I, 16| affirmative syllogism, e.g. AB the major premiss, is necessary, there
39      I, 16|   affirmative or negative, and the major premiss is particular and
40      I, 17|     syllogism will result: for the major premiss, as has been said,
41      I, 17|          proof can be given if the major premiss is negative, the
42      I, 19|           proof is possible if the major premiss is affirmative.~
43      I, 45|    negative statement concerns the major extreme, reduction to the
44      I, 45| affirmative statement concerns the major extreme, no resolution will

46     II, 9 |         premiss which concerns the major extreme by establishing
47     II, 10|         premiss which concerns the major through the last figure.
48     II, 10|         premiss which concerns the major extreme through the last.
49     II, 10|         premiss which concerns the major is always refuted through
50     II, 23|          for the latter proves the major term to belong to the third
51     II, 23|      middle, the former proves the major to belong to the middle
52     II, 24|         have an "example" when the major term is proved to belong
53     II, 24|        proves (as we saw) that the major term belongs to the middle,
