Página 7 - It seems to me further that these particles have not only a vis inertiae accompanied with such passive laws of motion as naturally result from that force, but also that they are moved by certain active principles, such as is that of gravity and that which causes fermentation and the cohesion of bodies.
Página 7 - ... it seems probable to me that God in the beginning formed matter in solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, movable particles, of such sizes and figures, and with such other properties and in such proportion to space as most conduced to the end for "which He formed them ; and that these primitive particles, being solids, are incomparably harder than any porous bodies compounded of them, even so very hard as never to wear or break in pieces — no ordinary power being able to divide what God himself...

Página 7 - All these things being considered, it seems probable to me that God in the beginning formed matter in solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, moveable particles, of such sizes and figures, and with such other properties and in such proportion to space as most conduced to the end for which he formed them...
Página 7 - While the particles continue entire they may compose bodies of one and the same nature and texture in all ages; but should they wear away or break in pieces, the nature of things depending on them would be changed. Water and earth, composed of old worn particles and fragments of particles, would not be of the same nature and texture now, with water and earth composed of entire particles in the beginning. And therefore that nature may be lasting, the changes of corporeal things are to be placed only...
Página 7 - Gravity, and that which causes Fermentation, and the Cohesion of Bodies. These Principles I consider, not as occult Qualities, supposed to result from the specifick Forms of Things, but as general Laws of Nature, by which the Things themselves are form'd; their Truth appearing to us by Phenomena, though their Causes be not yet discover'd. For these are manifest Qualities, and their Causes only are occult.
Página 7 - Separations and new Associations and Motions of these permanent Particles; compound Bodies being apt to break, not in the midst of solid Particles, but where those Particles are laid together, and only touch in a few Points. It seems to me farther, that these Particles have not only a Vis inertiae, accompanied with such passive Laws of Motion as naturally result from that Force, but also that they are moved by certain active Principles, such as is that of Gravity, and that which causes Fermentation,...

Water and Earth, composed of old worn Particles and Fragments of Particles, would not be of the same Nature and Texture now, with Water and Earth composed of entire 817 Particles in the Beginning.
Página xlvi - Faraday, you undertook to investigate the relations between the chemical composition of bodies and their magnetic circular polarization — that is to say, one of the general properties of all matter. Before you began work there was little, almost nothing, known of this subject, certainly nothing of practical use to the chemist. You created a new branch of science, taught us how from the magnetic rotation conclusions...
Página xlvi - ... that is to say one of the general properties of all matter. Before you began work there was little, almost nothing, known of this subject, certainly nothing of practical use to the chemist. You created a new branch of science, taught us how, from the magnetic rotation, conclusions can be drawn as to the chemical structure of bodies, and showed that the magnetic rotation allows us to draw comprehensive and certain conclusions as to the chemical constitution of substances, just as we may from another...
