1831. May 26

Posology

II. Morphoscopic
§. Proposition — Parts 3.

1.
Parts in every proposition
1. The enuntiative
2. The demonstrative
3. The preparative

2.
So as per Euclid, and
his followers. See whether
it can be otherwise?

3.
1. Enuntiative part
that by which the
of a certain state
of things the existence
is simply affirmed:
nothing, to induce belief,
added.

4.
2. Demonstrative,
that whereby suggestions
are made having
for object the inducing
belief in the
existence of the state
of things enunciated.

5.
3. Preparative, that
by which are directed
to be made in the
diagram employed
for elucidation of
the enunciation alterartions
for the
purpose of the demonstration.

6.
Customary mode of giving
expression to these three parts:
1. Enuntiation in ordinary
conventional discourse.
2. Added thereto of this
same matter a designation
in form of a diagram.

7.
The diagram a sort of
graphical indication
of the form of the surface
or solid spoken
of: this with the addition
of the preparative
part, if any employed
for the purpose of
inducing the belief
which the demonstrative
part is ultimately
employed to in the
endeavour to induce.

8.
Made if at all is
this preparative
part of lines, singly
and successively
drawn from this
or that other part
of the surface
spoken of in the
enuntiative part
and represented
by the diagram in
its original state.

9.
Further means of elucidation
here proposed —
1. For the aggregate of
the lines employed
in the preparative
part — ink of a color
different from those
composing the diagram
in its original
state.

10.
General results to different
propositions diagrams
in different numbers —
1. In some instances
a single one
2. In others two: namely
exhibiting
1. The enuntiation
2. a preparative part
consisting of one red-ink
line, added for the
purpose of the demonstration.
3. the same with the
addition of another
red-ink line.
4. and so on, adding
each time a line.

11.
In the form of a table
may stand exhibited
the diagrams belonging
to propositions
in any number, then
expressed: and this
without the letter-press
of which the text is
composed. Use, promptitude
and facility given
to the calling to mind
the ideas in question,
when once conceived
by means of the ordinary
discourse.

12.
To the above mentioned
red lines there may perhaps
be a use in adding
for direction simple
marks instead of words:
Of these marks explanation
being given in
the margin, by the
addition of the corresponding
words to which
they are employed as substitutes.

13.
Ulterior possibly convenient
addition at
the bottom of the Table
which of the correspondent
matter of the Letter-press
to be looked at
or not as
each reader finds
need.
