But whilst we are destitute of senses acute enough to discover the minute particles of bodies, and to give us ideas of their mechanical affections, we must be content to be ignorant of their properties and ways of operation; nor can we be assured about them any further than some few trials we make are able to reach.
Baina gorputzen partikula nimiñoak atzemateko eta haien eragipen mekanikoen ideiak geuganatzeko behar bezain sentimen zorrotzik ez daukagun bitartean eta, haien propietateak eta jardunbideak ez ezagutzearekin konformatu beharko dugu eta froga gutxi batzuk ematen digutena beste ziurtasunik ezin izanen dugu haietaz ukan.
