420. Conclude, &c.] This Condufion is falfe ; as indeed is this whole Argument, to prove the Corporealityjand confequent- ly the Mortality of the Soul: and it is anfwer'd in one Word, That the Soul is a Spirit. Befides *, Tho' the Mind, when the Body is afleep, does think of Smoke, Wa- ter, Mift, or other Things of Jthe like Sort, it is not Hie that receives the Images of thofe Things, but the Fanfy, which is an interiour Faculty of the Soul: and thefe Images being thus ad- mitted i...nto the Fanfy, the Mind makes Ufe pf them, to know the Things whofe Ima- ges they are. Add to this, that the Mind knows other Things, whofe Images are neither re- ceiv'd within her felf, nor in the Fanfy neither. Thus it is no Proof that the Soul is Corporeal, becaufe the Mind makes Ufe of corporeal Images, to come ^t the Knowledge of Things. And therefore the Poet adcjs, with- out Reafon, that when the Soul is gone out of the Body, it can not fubfift in Safety from the very ^ir, which is more rare than the Body, by which alone the Soul could be contain'd : For the Soul is a Spirit, and wants not Air to preferve and keep it felf alive.
