Logicians will grant, that individuum est species. Not onely Ramus, Ber∣husius Snellius, Gutberleth, &c. but Aristotle will grant it: He testifyeth that the last and lowest generall kindes are next above the individualls, as man is Arist. lib. 3. above individuall men. Extrema, seu ultima g••nera supra indivi-Metaph. c. 4. dua sunt, ut Homo. I might easily name severall Authors who

We shall therefore (having propounded these prepa∣ratives and expl••ations, somwhat helping to understand the Cause in hand) present some Artificiall Arguments and reasons for the demonstration of this truth, that
Individuum est Species.
