As the want of ideas which our faculties are not able to give us shuts us wholly from those views of things which it is reasonable to think other beings, perfecter than we, have, of which we know nothing; so the want of ideas I now speak of keeps us in ignorance of things we conceive capable of being known to us.
Gure ahalmenek eman ezin dizkiguten ideien faltak gu baino perfektuagoak diren beste izaki batzuek, arrazoiz uste izan dezakegun bezala, badituzten ikuspegietarako atea erabat ixten digun bezala, halaxe orain aipatzen ari garen ideien gabeziak ezagut ditzakegun gauzatzat ditugunen ezjakinean uzten gaitu. Guk badugu bolumenaren, irudiaren eta higiduraren ideia.
