In propositions thus: Iohn is honest, Iohn is not honest: Plato disputeth, Plato disputeth not: in which kinde of propositions, there is no meane of truth or falshood; for of necessitie the one of them must alwaies be either true or false, in such sort, as both can∣not be true together, nor both false together. In simple termes thus: a man, no man: to know, not to know: to be, and not to be: and therefore opposites by contradiction be most contrarie, and doe differ from all the rest; for in all the other opposites, it is easie to finde out some meane subiect, whereof neither of them can be truly spoken or affirmed.
