The arte of logick Plainely taught in the English tongue, according to the best approued authors. Very necessary for all students in any profession, how to defend any argument against all subtill sophisters, and cauelling schismatikes, and how to confute their false syllogismes, and captious arguments. By M. Blundevile.

How is species called of the Greekes?

It is called Idea, which is as much to say, as a common shape conceiued in the minde, through some knowledge had before of one or two Indiuiduums hauing that shape: so as after wee haue seene one wolfe, or two, we beare the shape thereof continually in our mindes, and thereby are able to know a wolfe whensoeuer we finde him, or (if need be) to paint him. But genus extendeth too farre, and comprehendeth too many speciall kindes to bee so easily painted. And note that such shapes or Ideae are said also to be perpetuall.
