As for example, in artificial things this very de∣scription will declare how hard a thing it is to find out the form, but we use to point at it by the matter, and by the position of it. There stood great beams all along, two foot asunder, put into the earth, & the
distances between them were stuffed with great stones: when these were so fastned, then there was a new or∣der begun, where they laid the beams against those stones that were laid before, and filled likewise the distances with stones which were against the first lay of beams: but what hath he told us now? why saith he, I am a French-man, and I will tell you the form of a French wall, where if you do but look at the forms of every part, and of them, you shall see a composed form: so that the Logician doth not look at the outward face of a thing, but at the inward es∣sence: here he is fain to deliver the form by many other arguments, and indeed it is a description of forma.
