The refusal of people to assent 3169 Not, 2 | refusal of people to assent to the innate clearness of some 3170 Not, 2 | serious endeavour to see the light by which these phenomena 3171 Not, 2 | sceptic paradoxes (46). The sceptics argue thus: you 3172 Not, 2 | existing things may be mistaken the one for the other? (47). 3173 Not, 2 | be mistaken the one for the other? (47).

The whole is an attempt to prove 3191 Not, 2 | whole is an attempt to prove the proposition announced in 3192 Not, 2 | visis adiuncta esse falsa.

If the god can manufacture (efficere) 3196 Not, 2 | false, but probable (as the Stoics say he does in dreams), 3197 Not, 2 | difficulty distinguishable from the true, or finally to be utterly 3198 Not, 2 | utterly indistinguishable from the true (this meaning of inter 3199 Not, 2 | degree of resemblance to the true, by the three succeeding 3200 Not, 2 | resemblance to the true, by the three succeeding stages 3201 Not, 2 | three succeeding stages the resemblance is made complete. 3202 Not, 2 | resemblance is made complete. The word probabilia is a sort 3203 Not, 2 | must not be repeated after the second efficere, or the 3204 Not, 2 | the second efficere, or the whole sense will be inverted 3205 Not, 2 | in 34, 47, i.e. without the approach of any external 3206 Not, 2 | external object. Cogitatione: the only word in Latin, as διανοια 3207 Not, 2 | Madv. D.F. III. 58 for sit. The argument has the same purpose 3208 Not, 2 | for sit. The argument has the same purpose as that in 3209 Not, 2 | same purpose as that in the last section, viz to show 3210 Not, 2 | phantom sensations may produce the same effect on the mind 3211 Not, 2 | produce the same effect on the mind as those which proceed 3212 Not, 2 | from realities. Ut si qui: the ut here is merely "as," " 3213 Not, 2 | on 33. Nihil ut esset: the ut here is a repetition 3214 Not, 2 | here is a repetition of the ut used several times in 3215 Not, 2 | ut used several times in the early part of the sentence, 3216 Not, 2 | times in the early part of the sentence, all of them alike 3217 Not, 2 | των εν ‛ημιν παθων, and the two classes of falsa visa 3218 Not, 2 | sensations which are probable (as the Stoics allow), why should 3219 Not, 2 | difficulty distinguishable from the true? The rest exactly as 3220 Not, 2 | distinguishable from the true? The rest exactly as in 47.~§§ 3221 Not, 2 | and therefore faulty (49). The admission of a certain amount 3222 Not, 2 | does not logically lead to the impossibility of distinguishing 3223 Not, 2 | of distinguishing between the true and the false (50). 3224 Not, 2 | distinguishing between the true and the false (50). We contend that 3225 Not, 2 | When we have wakened from the dream, we make light of 3226 Not, 2 | dream, we make light of the sensations we had while 3227 Not, 2 | say they, "you allow that the wise man in madness withholds 3228 Not, 2 | Sext. often quotes him in the discussion of this and similar 3229 Not, 2 | κεφαλαια.

The Servilii were distinguished 3273 Not, 2 | of fowls could tell from the appearance of an egg which 3274 Not, 2 | they profess to follow.

Quod 3285 Not, 2 | quite destroys the point of the sentence. Quod nolunt: cf. 3286 Not, 2 | Similitudines: cf. 84—86. The impossibility of distinguishing 3287 Not, 2 | distinguishing between twins, eggs, the impressions of seals, etc. 3288 Not, 2 | was a favourite theme with the sceptics, while the Stoics 3289 Not, 2 | with the sceptics, while the Stoics contended that no 3290 Not, 2 | absolutely alike. Aristo the Chian, who maintained the 3291 Not, 2 | the Chian, who maintained the Stoic view, was practically 3292 Not, 2 | money with Aristo, while the other after a time asked 3293 Not, 2 | other after a time asked for the money back and received 3294 Not, 2 | esse second, especially at the end of a clause.
