This being so, and it being withal certain that names which yet are not thought altogether insignificant do not always mark out PARTICULAR conceivable ideas, it is straightway concluded that THEY STAND FOR ABSTRACT NOTIONS. That there are many names in use amongst speculative men which do not always suggest to others determinate, particular ideas, or in truth anything at all, is what nobody will deny.
Hau horrela delarik, eta era berean egia izanik baita ere nolabait esanguraduntzat hartzen diren hitzek beti ez dituztela ideia partikular bururagarriak adierazten, zuzenean konkluditzen da nozio abstraktuak errepresentatzen dituztela. Espekulazio-gizonak erabilitako izen asko dela besteei ideia partikular konkretuak beti iradokitzen ez dizkienak, inork ez du ukatuko.
