SECT. I. of Laws in General But I hear no matter protesting, that we do inhim
an injustice: for be it from us all justice shall be
lower
But our matter we will suppose, or somebody for
him rises to explain. For There's room for it There are
Laws for Clocks: says he, that's true: and there are Laws for Men:

"power to think nor to will." (whether the Clock go true as the must" be" invi-

Free Will "is necessarily subject" to the Laws that

ture. It is called indeedby a different name that ispart of it
which is what is opposed to that part whichthat goes by
