Ars generalis est rati nis, or orationis.

This general art running according to the general thing, that is, which is of general use, is either the 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 or 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉: now the 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 is more general, because the thing must first be carried to me, before I can deliver it to another. Again, the 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 is of absolute necessity in every thing, and therefore must needs be there, whereas the 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 is therefore gene∣ral because it may be every where, but is not; For it is impossible for us to see any thing without there be reason in it, ergo Logick the art that made it is most general, and omnium 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 and therefore by nature is first, for other arts cannot be without it, that may be without them: and thus now we are come to Logick.
