Geometry Prefatoria
Ideas of Figures how produced
Quantity
to be put immediately
after def:of Quantity

Quantity is a comprehensive abtract apellation applied
to denote anything whatsoever considered in one
particular point of view and that one only , namely,
in as far as it is susceptible of having more
made of it or less

Mem: to Consider under the head of each Figure
from what substance or motion the idea of
it iswas originally obtained, and whether from a Substance
or Motion. That method of defining a
Figure which produces that sort of Definition
called a Definition from its Generation derives
the Idea of it from Motion; the motion
which serves to describe a Figure is a
motion impress upon it either by Nature
or by Art that is either without the Instrumentality
of Man or by his Instrumentality. It is
more likely when a Figure is of such a Nature
as that it might have been suggested either
by a Substance, or by a Point in motion it is
more likely that the Idea of it should have been originally
suggested by the Substance than by the Motion.
