But in the species of corporeal substances, though it be the mind that makes the nominal essence, yet, since those ideas which are combined in it are supposed to have an union in nature whether the mind joins them or not, therefore those are looked on as distinct species, without any operation of the mind, either abstracting, or giving a name to that complex idea.
Baina gorpuzdun substantzien espezieetan, esentzia nominala eratzen duena gogamena den arren, uste denez bertan konbinatzen diren ideia horiek naturan, gogamenak batu zein ez batu, batasuna dutela, espezie ezberdintzat hartzen dira, gogamenak inolako eragiketarik egiteko, ez abstraitzeko ez ideia konplexu horri izena emateko, beharrizanik gabe.
