Plenary Introd

Falsehood then or nonsense is the only import, of
which, abstracted from all relation to any proposition
having for its subject the name of some real entity,
a proposition having for its subject the name of a
fictitious entity is susceptible
8
Setting aside its
relation to a proposition
having for its
subject a real entity, a do
having for do a fictitious
do is but falsehood
or nonsense.
By this term apphension, incontestable as it is
no imputation, it will presently be seen can possibly
be found to attach upon any person on the ground
of the use which in the time of his discourse he
made makes of terms significative of, and propositions
constructed out of names of fictitious entities. To
the To any carrying on of any discourse
having for its matter terms any matter considerably different
from that the matter of the sort of discourse which the
inferior animals hold with one another, names of
fictitious are not less necessary than names of fictit
real entities.

No imputation is
to be conveyed in
the use of fictitious
entity propositions
Fictitious entity propositions
are necessary
to all discourse
other
of the such as
might be carried
on by inferior
animals.
By an short observation human comprehension the necessity of the language
of fictitious entities to the purposes every purpose of rational
discourse will be rendered sufficiently apparent.
As to the greatest part of it, to all discourse having for
its subject the state of the human mind, the word operation
which it is capable in the habit of performing, and the most distinguishable parts
into which it is capable of being represented as divisible,
and the modification of which it is susceptible —
names of fictitious entities and propositions having for
their subject names of fictitious entities, in a word fictitious
entity language is are effectually and indispensably necessary.
10
The discourse
having for its subject
the state of
in any operations
of the mind fictitious
entity discourse
is necessary,
real entity
do being inapplicable.
