Liostendam, quod necessario debeat dari Methodus, qua nostras

quidem exhoc solo constat, quod una clara, ec diltincta perceptio,
aut plures simul possunt absolute ense caula alterius clarae e distin-
eta perceptionis. Imo omnes clarx ec distinctae perceptiones, quas
Formamus, non porlune oriri nili ab aliis claris a distinctis perce
