[G.] I Am not yet convinced, but that the Aristotelian Phi∣losophy is insufficient for the Solution of the Phaenome∣na; And yet question not Aristotle's endeavours in that kind, but his success, upon what Accounts my Discourse declareth.
I acknowledge the ingenuity of Sir Kenelm Digbye's Hypo∣theseis: But cannot yet understand that to have been Ari∣stotle's method. And I think our Author is one of the first that asserts Aristotle to have taught the Corpuscularian and Atomical Philosophy; for all the World hath hitherto taken his, to be the way of Qualities and Forms: Yea Aristotle mentions the Atomical Hypothesis of Democritus in a way of dissent and profest opposition; 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 which last pas∣sage is the main substance of the Corpuscularian Philosophy. And elsewhere he recites the same Hypothesis from Leu∣cippus and Democritus, to the same purpose; 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.
