"We rather take Notice of this here; Because this Philosophy had made the Mind a Rasa Tabula, or a Blank Paper, or an Empty and Void Room without any Furniture, which therefore it was to Supply; And this is done by Storing it with it's Simple Ideas from Sensation and Reflection, and from thence Deriving it's Complex Ones; On the Contrary we say, that what this Philosophy Terms Simple Ideas, are Abstracted ones, as Colour, Sound, Extension, <i>&c</i>. and therefore are not First in the Mind, but are Made by it; And on the other Hand, what it Names Complex Ideas, are Received Whole, and Compounded into the Mind, and are afterwards Separated into the Simple Ideas, or the Particulars, of which they Consist."
