CHAP. III. Of the Extent of Humane Knowledge.
FRom what has been said concerning Knowledge, it follows that, First, We can have no Knowledge farther than we have Ideas.
Secondly, That we have no Knowledge farther than we can have Perception of that Agreement or Disagreement of our Ideas, either by Intuition, Demonstration, or Sensation.
Thirdly, We cannot have an Intuitive Knowledge that shall extend it self to all our Ideas, and all that we would know about them; because we cannot examine and perceive all the Relations they have one to another, by Juxta-position, or an immediate Comparison one with another. Thus we cannot intuitively perceive the equality of two Extensions, the diffe∣rence of whose Figures makes their parts uncapable of an exact and immediate ap∣plication.
