CHAP. X. Of Idea.
IDea is a bodilesse substance, which of it selfe hath no subsistence, but giveth figure and forme unto shapelesse matters, and becommeth the very cause that bringeth them into shew and [ 10] evidence.
SOCRATES and PLATO suppose, that these Ideae bee substances separate and distinct from Matter, howbeit, subsisting in the thoughts and imaginations of God, that is to say, of Minde and Understanding.
ARISTOTLE admitteth verily these formes and Ideae, howbeit, not separate from matter, as being the patterns of all that which God hath made.
The STOICKS, such as were the scholars of Zeno, have delivered, that our thoughts and conceits were the Ideae.
