THE
ART
OF
MEMORIE
.
CHAP.
I.
Of
the
Repositorie
.
THe
Art
of
Memorie
,
so
farre
foorth
as
it
dependeth
vpon
Places
&
Idea's
,
consisteth
of
two
parts
:
Reposition
,
and
Deposition
.
Reposition
is
that
part
,
whereby
things
to
be
remembred
,
are
layd
vp
in
minde
by
their
Idea's
,
bestowed
in
the
places
of
Repositories
.
But
before
I
come
to
the
maner
of
bestowing
or
laying
vp
Idea's
in
the
places
of
Repositories
,
necessary
it
is
that
I
should
seuerally
intreate
,
first
concerning
Repositories
;
secondly
the
places
therein
determined
;
and
thirdly
touching
Idea's
in
those
places
bestowed
.
A
Repositorie
is
an
imaginary
house
or
building
,
the
forme
and
fashion
whereof
is
as
followeth
:
Let
there
be
supposed
a
building
of
the
best
Cane
stone
to
stand
before
vs
,
the
inside
whereof
is
in
length
twelue
yards
,
in
bredth
sixe
yards
,
&
in
height
seuen
yards
,
and
the
roofe
thereof
flat
,
leaded
aboue
,
and
pargetted
vnderneath
,
hauing
no
wall
at
all
vpon
the
hither
side
which
is
towards
vs
,
but
the
whole
house
lying
wide
open
to
our
view
.
Let
there
be
also
supposed
within
the
sayd
building
,
a
marble
stage
smoothe
and
euen
,
one
yard
high
aboue
the
leuell
of
the
ground
,
whereon
we
stand
;
extending
it selfe
the
full
length
and
bredth
of
the
said
building
.
And
that
all
the
three
walls
of
the
house
(
that
is
to
say
,
the
opposite
wall
,
and
the
two
side
walls
)
are
wholy
lined
on
the
inside
with
choice
cypresse
boords
,
plaine
and
smoothe
,
and
so
close
ioyned
,
that
it
beareth
no
mention
thereof
to
be
seene
,
vnto
a
man
standing
vpon
this
side
of
the
stage
.
Furthermore
,
let
there
be
imagined
a
grooue
or
gutter
to
be
cut
in
the
iust
middle
of
the
marble
stage
,
three
inches
deepe
,
and
three
inches
broade
,
drawne
from
the
opposite
wall
to
the
hither
side
of
the
stage
,
whereby
it
is
exactly
diuided
into
two
equall
parts
:
And
that
vpon
the
further
end
of
the
said
gutter
,
there
is
erected
a
Corinthian
or
round
pillar
,
one
foote
and
an
halfe
thicke
,
arising
vp
to
the
roofe
of
the
building
,
which
almost
toucheth
the
opposite
wall
,
and
deuideth
it
exactly
into
two
equall
parts
;
as
the
grooue
diuideth
the
stage
.
So
that
by
the
grooue
&
the
pillar
the
whole
Repositorie
is
parted
in
twaine
,
and
consisteth
of
two
roomes
siding
each
other
,
and
being
each
of
them
six
yards
long
,
and
six
yards
broad
,
and
six
yards
high
.
But
that
you
may
the
better
perceiue
this
description
,
behold
here
the
type
and
fashion
of
the
Repositorie
,
limited
by
the
letters
contained
therein
;
whose
signification
followeth
after
the
Figure

And
such
a
fashioned
Rep●sitorie
are
we
to
prefixe
befo●●
the
eyes
of
our
mind
,
as
oft●●
as
we
intend
to
commit
thin●
to
memory
,
supposing
o●
selues
to
be
right
against
t●●
midst
thereof
,
and
in
the
d●stance
of
two
yards
ther●
from
.
Now
although
euery
Rep●sitorie
which
we
feigne
to
b●
before
vs
,
must
be
of
the
sam●
fashion
and
building
;
yet
a●
they
to
be
distinguished
on●
from
another
,
by
the
seueral●
colours
of
their
pillars
.
Fo●
there
are
eighteene
Repositori●
in
all
,
which
are
thus
disti●guished
:
The
pillar
of
the
first
〈◊〉
of
gold
;
the
pillar
of
the
se●ond
of
siluer
:
both
of
them
●ery
bright
and
polished
.
The
pillars
of
the
next
seuen
,
must
be
supposed
to
be
euery
of
●hem
of
one
entire
stone
smooth
and
shining
,
and
thus
d●ff●renced
one
from
another
.
The
colour
of
the
pillar
in
the
third
Repositorie
must
be
black
;
in
the
fourth
Repositorie
,
blue
;
in
the
fift
,
red
;
in
the
sixt
,
yellow
;
in
the
seuenth
,
greene
;
in
in
the
eighth
,
purple
;
in
the
ninth
,
white
:
so
that
these
first
nine
Repositories
haue
but
one
pillar
apiece
in
them
;
the
other
nine
are
supposed
to
haue
two
,
standing
together
,
in
the
middle
of
the
Repositorie
,
close
to
the
opposite
wall
;
the
one
vpon
the
one
side
of
the
grooue
,
and
the
other
vpon
the
other
side
thereof
,
touching
each
other
,
and
the
opposite
wall
with
their
bases
,
diuersified
one
from
another
,
by
a
repetition
of
the
nine
former
colours
in
the
same
order
.
For
both
the
pillars
in
the
tenth
house
or
Repositorie
,
must
be
imagined
to
be
of
gold
:
both
pillars
in
the
eleuenth
house
,
of
siluer
;
in
the
twelfth
house
of
two
entire
blacke
stones
smooth
and
shining
;
in
the
thirteenth
of
two
entire
blue
stones
:
and
so
likewise
in
the
rest
.
And
thus
much
concerning
the
Repositories
or
imaginary
houses
,
and
how
they
are
distinguished
.
CHAP.
II.
Of
Places
.
A
Place
(
as
it
is
considered
in
this
Art
)
is
a
roome
●etermined
in
the
Repositorie
,
〈◊〉
for
receiuing
the
Idea's
or
●ormes
of
things
thereinto
.
In
●uery
Repositorie
are
two
places
●r
rooms
,
and
no
more
:
which
reseuered
each
from
other
,
by
●he
grooue
and
pillar
,
accor●ing
to
the
manner
prescribed
〈◊〉
the
former
Chapter
.
For
●l
that
space
,
which
occupieth
●he
whole
halfe
part
of
the
Re●ositorie
vpon
the
left
hand
,
is
●ounted
the
first
place
thereof
:
●nd
all
that
space
of
the
other
●alfe
part
of
the
Repositorie
vp●n
the
right
hand
,
is
counted
the
second
place
.
And
so
muc●
concerning
the
places
.
CHAP.
III.
Of
Idea's
in
generall
.
AN
Idea
is
a
visible
representation
of
ought
to
b●
remembred
,
bestowed
by
th●
Imagination
in
one
of
th●
places
of
a
Repositarie
,
by
th●
remembrance
whereof
we
ca●
to
mind
that
which
was
there
by
signified
.
Euery
Idea
is
to
be
accompanied
with
its
proper
circumstances
,
as
the
nature
thereo●
doth
require
.
For
as
any
writing
,
the
fairer
it
is
written
the
better
it
is
read
:
so
by
ho●
much
the
more
liuely
the
Idea'●
are
set
foorth
,
according
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
exigence
of
their
nature
,
much
the
sooner
are
they
●ed
to
mind
,
and
by
them
,
〈◊〉
things
also
committed
to
●mory
.
Therefore
to
the
I●'s
of
things
moouing
,
the
●e
same
motion
is
to
be
a●bed
;
and
to
the
Idea's
of
●ngs
giuing
a
sound
,
that
self
●e
sound
is
to
be
attributed
.
●amples
of
Idea's
whereun●
motion
is
ascribed
,
are
,
an
●ificer
at
worke
in
his
shop
,
●n
and
women
dancing
,
wa●
running
from
a
spout
,
and
●ch
like
.
Examples
of
Idea's
●hereunto
sound
is
giuen
,
are
●ion
roaring
,
a
Faulkner
lu●g
,
a
bell
ringing
,
a
Quirister
●ging
,
a
noice
of
Musicians
,
●d
the
like
.
Finally
,
euery
I●a
ought
to
haue
such
setting
●t
,
as
seemeth
in
speciall
maner
appropriated
thereun●
that
it
may
be
the
better
〈◊〉
prehended
by
the
memory
.
In
euery
Idea
we
haue
fo●
things
to
be
considered
.
Qu●titie
,
Position
,
Colour
,
〈◊〉
Kinde
.
Of
which
foure
I
〈◊〉
intreate
in
their
order
.
CHAP.
IIII.
Concerning
the
Quantitie
of
Idea's
.
AN
Idea
,
in
respect
of
〈◊〉
Quantitie
,
is
either
Equ●
Augmented
,
or
Contracted
.
An
Equall
Idea
is
such
,
〈◊〉
whereby
the
thing
to
be
〈◊〉
membred
,
being
neither
〈◊〉
great
,
but
that
it
may
be
co●tained
in
one
of
the
places
;
〈◊〉
so
small
,
but
being
there
●●owed
,
it
may
easily
be
seene
〈◊〉
one
that
standeth
two
yards
〈◊〉
this
side
the
stage
;
is
there●re
placed
in
its
equall
and
●e
quantitie
.
Of
which
sort
●e
a
chaire
,
a
table
,
a
bedsteed
●rnished
,
a
heape
of
graine
,
a
●acke
of
wood
,
a
duell
fought
●etweene
two
combatants
,
●nd
the
like
.
An
Idea
augmented
,
is
such
,
〈◊〉
whereby
the
thing
to
be
re●embred
being
so
small
,
as
●eing
it
s●lfe
alone
bestowed
〈◊〉
one
of
the
places
of
the
Re●sitorie
,
cannot
be
seen
of
him
〈◊〉
at
standeth
two
yards
in
this
●de
the
stage
,
must
therefore
●e
augmented
by
the
increase
●f
the
number
,
of
that
which
is
〈◊〉
be
placed
.
vt
Quae
non
pro●nt
singula
multa
invent
.
As
●r
example
:
if
the
Idea
to
be
bestowed
,
be
a
pearle
,
a
peni●●
a
graine
of
mustard
seed
,
o●●
spider
:
these
things
are
〈◊〉
themselues
so
small
,
as
bei●
disposed
in
one
of
the
plac●
of
the
Repositorie
,
they
cann●
be
seene
in
the
foremention●
distance
.
Therefore
for
o●
pearle
I
suppose
a
bushell
〈◊〉
pearles
to
be
heaped
in
t●
middle
of
one
of
the
places
;
〈◊〉
one
pennie
an
heape
of
pen●
new
coyned
;
for
one
grai●
of
mustard-seed
,
a
coome
〈◊〉
mustard-seed
in
like
mann●
heaped
together
:
for
one
sp●der
,
I
suppose
a
multitude
〈◊〉
spiders
creeping
close
togeth●
in
the
midst
of
the
oppos●
wall
.
An
Idea
Contracted
is
suc●
as
whereby
the
thing
to
be
r●membred
being
so
great
,
th●
●annot
be
contained
in
so
nar●●w
limits
,
as
the
place
of
a
●positorie
is
;
is
therefore
sup●sed
to
be
painted
in
liuely
●lours
,
vpon
that
halfe
of
the
●posite
wall
which
belongeth
〈◊〉
the
place
wherein
this
Idea
〈◊〉
to
be
bestowed
.
For
all
vi●le
things
in
the
world
,
●ough
neuer
so
great
,
and
ne●r
so
farre
disterminate
,
may
●ry
easily
be
represented
by
a
●cture
drawne
vpon
the
wall
〈◊〉
this
contracted
forme
.
As
if
●e
thing
to
be
remembred
be
〈◊〉
Church
,
a
Citie
,
a
mountaine
,
〈◊〉
comet
,
or
other
prodigious
●●gne
in
the
heauen
,
a
field
●●ught
,
a
fight
at
sea
,
a
trium●ant
passage
in
pomp
&
state
,
〈◊〉
hunting
or
hawking
through
●●e
spacious
forrests
,
or
any
●●her
the
like
,
whose
Idea
in
the
full
bignesse
,
cannot
〈◊〉
contained
in
a
place
of
the
R●positorie
;
All
these
are
to
be
〈◊〉
foorth
in
a
picture
,
occupyi●
the
one
halfe
of
the
oppos●
wall
,
that
in
this
attenuat●
form
it
maybe
fully
expresse●
within
the
bounds
and
limi●
of
its
proper
place
.
And
〈◊〉
much
concerning
the
Qua●titie
of
Idea's
:
come
we
ne●
to
their
Position
.
CHAP.
V.
Of
the
Position
of
Idea's
.
LEt
the
position
or
situ●tion
of
euery
Idea
be
su●
as
is
most
agreeable
to
t●
thing
signified
thereby
.
F●
those
things
which
we
co●monly
hang
vpon
a
wall
,
〈◊〉
●ten
thereunto
,
are
here
also
〈◊〉
like
maner
to
be
vsed
.
As
if
●e
Idea
be
some
picture
of
a
●an
;
because
it
is
the
vse
of
a
●cture
to
be
hung
vpon
a
wal
,
●e
must
therefore
suppose
it
〈◊〉
hang
vpon
the
opposite
〈◊〉
all
:
if
it
be
a
Proclamation
〈◊〉
Title
page
of
a
booke
,
that
〈◊〉
is
pasted
vnto
the
wall
;
if
it
●e
a
new
Pamphlet
,
that
it
is
●stned
to
the
wall
with
nailes
;
〈◊〉
it
be
a
Tombe
,
we
must
fan●e
it
to
be
set
vp
close
to
the
〈◊〉
all
,
and
the
streamers
and
●endants
to
be
fastened
aloft
●nto
the
opposite
and
side
wall
●f
the
same
roome
,
wherein
●is
Idea
is
to
be
placed
.
So
the
●hings
which
are
wont
to
be
●laced
vpon
a
court-cupboord
●r
shelfe
,
are
to
haue
like
place
●ere
:
as
a
garnish
of
plate
,
or
vessels
of
glasse
vpon
a
court
c●boord
;
bookes
or
merce●
wares
bestowed
vpon
shelue●
Those
things
which
be
acc●stomed
to
be
vpon
tables
,
〈◊〉
imagined
here
also
to
ha●
place
vpon
a
table
:
of
whi●sort
are
a
banquet
,
moneys
to
out
into
seuerall
heapes
,
pla●ing
tables
,
&c.
Things
plac●
vpon
the
ground
,
are
here
lik●wise
supposed
to
haue
pla●
vpon
the
marble
stage
,
as
a
t●ble
,
chest
,
cradle
,
or
any
liuin●
creature
standing
,
sitting
,
g●ing
or
lying
along
,
&c.
Thin●
which
are
commonly
and
vs●ally
vnder
ground
,
are
here
su●posed
to
be
vnder
the
stag●
For
although
they
cannot
b●
seene
of
him
that
standeth
o●
this
side
the
stage
with
his
b●dily
eyes
,
yet
they
are
no●
●dden
from
the
eyes
of
his
●ind
,
which
onely
are
exerci●d
in
this
Art
.
Examples
of
●is
kind
are
a
graue
,
a
well
,
a
●ine
seller
,
a
myne
of
gold
,
sil●er
,
lead
,
&c.
Finally
,
the
selfe●
me
order
is
to
be
obserued
〈◊〉
the
site
and
position
of
all
●ther
Idea's
.
CHAP.
VI.
Of
the
Colours
of
Idea's
.
COme
we
now
to
the
third
thing
belonging
to
Idea's
,
which
is
Colour
.
Euery
Idea
●n
what
Repositorie
soeuer
it
standeth
,
must
haue
the
colour
of
the
same
Repository
in
whole
●or
in
part
attributed
vnto
it
.
As
if
a
blacke
bull
be
to
haue
the
place
of
an
Idea
in
any
of
the
two
roomes
of
the
first
Repositorie
,
the
hornes
thereof
mu●●
be
supposed
to
be
gilded
;
if
i●
any
place
of
the
second
Repositorie
,
the
hornes
must
be
supposed
to
be
tipt
with
siluer
:
i●
it
be
placed
in
the
third
Repositorie
,
the
proper
colour
there●●
being
blacke
already
,
is
sufficient
of
it selfe
whereby
to
remember
the
house
wherein
it
standeth
.
If
he
be
best●wed
in
the
fourth
Repositorie
,
then
le●
him
haue
a
garland
of
blue
flowers
about
his
necke
;
if
in
the
fift
Repositorie
,
a
garland
of
Damask
roses
:
if
in
the
sixt
,
of
Marygolds
:
if
in
the
seuenth
,
a
w●eath
of
Bayes
;
if
in
the
eight
,
of
Cloue
Iuly-flowers
;
if
in
the
ninth
,
of
Lillies
.
Furthermore
,
in
attributing
the
colour
of
any
Repositorie
〈◊〉
an
Idea
therein
placed
,
not
●articipating
it
of
it selfe
,
we
●ust
haue
a
care
that
it
be
ap●lied
as
neare
as
we
can
to
that
●art
which
is
most
spectable
●nd
conspicuous
.
As
if
the
hi●●ry
of
Ionas
the
Prophet
be
●ainted
vpon
any
halfe
part
of
●he
opposite
wall
in
the
first
●epositorie
,
although
therein
●e
to
be
painted
heauen
,
earth
,
●a
,
land
,
a
whale
,
a
ship
with
●ariners
in
it
;
yet
because
Io●as
being
the
subiect
of
the
hi●●ory
,
is
the
most
spectable
part
●f
the
picture
,
we
may
imagine
●he
hems
of
his
vpper
garment
●o
be
of
gold
:
as
we
see
it
vsed
●rdinarily
in
pictures
printed
,
wrought
in
distemper
,
and
var●ished
.
So
if
the
picture
of
Io●as
be
an
Idea
in
the
second
Repositorie
,
the
hems
of
his
vesture
may
be
siluered
:
if
in
the
third
Repositorie
,
we
may
imagine
his
vpper
garment
to
b●
of
the
colour
of
blacke
;
if
i●
the
fourth
,
of
blue
;
if
in
th●
fift
,
of
red
,
&c.
And
thus
much
concerning
the
attribution
o●
the
colour
of
the
Repositories
to
the
Idea's
therein
contained
▪
come
we
now
to
the
seueral
kindes
of
Idea's
.
CHAP.
VII
.
Of
Direct
Idea's
.
AN
Idea
is
simple
or
compound
.
A
simple
Idea
i●
vniforme
;
and
is
either
Direc●
or
Oblique
.
A
Direct
Idea
is
such
,
a●
whereby
a
thing
truly
visible
,
or
conceiued
vnder
a
visible
forme
,
is
layd
vp
in
the
same
forme
vnder
which
it
is
conceiued
.
So
a
goate
is
the
direct
Idea
of
a
goate
,
a
peacocke
of
a
peacocke
,
a
doue
of
a
doue
,
a
Church
of
a
Church
,
a
booke
of
a
booke
,
&c.
So
the
Idea
of
any
friend
or
acquaintance
,
is
his
true
proper
shape
.
So
good
and
euil
Angels
,
although
they
be
spirits
incorporeall
and
invisible
,
yet
since
they
are
commonly
conceiued
vnder
visible
formes
,
they
are
so
to
be
expressed
.
Finally
,
of
all
things
visible
,
or
conceiued
vnder
a
visible
forme
the
mind
it selfe
doth
presently
offer
direct
or
right
Idea's
,
that
we
shall
not
need
to
inuent
any
other
,
but
to
vse
them
which
are
offered
vnto
vs
.
For
if
any
shall
make
a
narration
vnto
vs
of
a
skirmish
at
sea
,
do
we
not
presently
suppose
our selues
to
see
before
the
eyes
of
our
mind
,
the
sea
ships
,
smoke
of
the
gunnes
discharged
,
&
such
like
things
as
belong
to
a
fight
at
sea
?
If
any
speake
of
mustering
and
training
men
,
do
we
not
fashion
to
our
minds
a
certaine
forme
of
a
field
,
wherein
souldiers
march
after
their
colours
in
a
military
order
?
Neither
●s
there
ought
else
h●re
prescribed
,
then
that
which
nature
it selfe
hath
taught
vs
,
sauing
that
for
our
better
taking
hold
vpon
these
naturall
Ideas
,
we
obserue
an
artificiall
order
and
manner
in
laying
them
vp
in
minde
,
that
we
may
the
sooner
find
them
.
And
so
much
for
a
Direct
Idea
.
CHAP.
VIII
.
Of
Relatiue
Idea's
.
AN
oblique
Idea
is
such
,
as
whereby
the
thing
to
be
remembred
,
is
obliquely
or
indirectly
signified
.
An
oblique
Idea
is
threefold
:
Relatiue
,
Subdit●●a
l.
or
Scriptile
.
A
Relatiue
is
a
simple
Idea
,
whereby
the
thing
to
be
remembred
,
is
expressed
by
his
his
Correlatiue
;
as
,
first
,
when
the
cause
is
signified
by
the
effect
:
As
when
Melancholy
is
signified
by
a
man
very
sad
,
who
hauing
his
armes
wreathed
vp
,
and
his
hatt
pull●d
downe
in
his
eyes
,
goeth
vp
and
downe
in
a
discontented
manner
.
The
Spring
time
,
by
the
greene
fields
,
and
the
trees
putting
forth
their
leaues
.
Winter
,
by
the
nakednes
of
trees
,
and
the
lakes
and
riuers
frozen
vp
.
Secondly
,
when
the
effect
is
signified
by
the
cause
.
As
if
I
should
signifie
Oppression
of
the
poore
,
by
a
couetous
miser
,
who
is
euery
where
ill
spoken
of
for
his
violence
and
extortion
:
or
Blasphemy
,
by
a
prodigious
blasphemous
wretch
well
knowne
vnto
vs
,
all
whose
speech
is
stuffed
with
dreadfull
oathes
and
blasphemies
.
Thirdly
,
when
the
Subiect
is
noted
by
the
Adiunct
:
As
when
the
Imperiall
dignitie
is
signified
by
a
Crowne
and
Scepter
.
A
wine
Tauerne
by
an
ivy
bush
and
red
lattice
,
&c.
Fourthly
,
when
the
Adiunct
●s
noted
by
the
Subiect
:
As
when
Cold
is
signified
by
ice
;
Heate
by
fire
;
Light
by
a
can●le
;
Affection
by
the
heart
,
which
is
the
seate
of
affections
;
Pride
,
by
a
Peacock
;
Gluttony
●y
an
Estrich
;
Drunkennesse
●y
a
drunken
man
;
Impudence
●y
an
harlot
;
Couetousnes
,
by
〈◊〉
rich
man
with
his
bags
about
him
,
and
such
like
.
Fiftly
,
when
the
like
is
put
for
the
like
:
As
Parallel
circles
(
that
is
,
circles
equally
distant
,
including
one
another
)
for
the
world
,
because
the
world
consisteth
of
spheres
,
including
one
another
,
as
parallell
circles
do
.
A
woman
holding
a
broken
pillar
,
for
Fortitude
.
A
virgin
hauing
her
eyes
couered
with
a
vaile
,
holding
a
sword
in
one
hand
,
and
a
paire
of
ballance
in
the
other
,
for
Iustice
.
An
old
man
winged
,
hauing
long
haire
in
the
forepart
of
his
head
,
and
being
bald
behind
,
for
Time
.
And
the
like
.
Si●
〈◊〉
●en
a
sentence
is
expressed
〈◊〉
a
familiar
example
,
whereby
the
truth
of
that
sentence
is
manifested
:
as
,
if
this
sentence
[
Venter
mero
aestuans
despumat
in
libidinem
:
that
is
,
The
belly
ouer-heated
with
wine
,
doth
froath
forth
into
lust
,
]
should
be
expressed
by
the
example
of
Lot
,
sporting
with
his
daughters
;
in
whose
fa●l
,
this
example
was
plainly
verified
.
Finally
,
when
any
thing
may
fitly
be
resembled
by
its
correlatiue
,
it
must
be
so
resembled
.
And
so
much
for
Relatiue
Idea's
.
CHAP.
IX
.
Of
Subdititiall
Idea's
.
A
Subdititiall
Idea
is
,
whereby
a
proper
name
is
com●itted
to
memory
,
by
some●●ing
placed
in
stead
there
of
,
wherewith
it
is
supposed
to
〈◊〉
haue
some
agreement
.
This
〈◊〉
done
two
wayes
.
First
,
when
a
mans
name
●gnifieth
something
visible
,
it
●ay
be
layd
vp
in
memory
by
●hat
visible
thing
it
signifieth
:
As
if
a
mans
name
be
Smith
,
his
name
may
be
remembred
by
●hinking
vpon
a
Smith
at
work
●n
one
of
the
roomes
of
the
Repositorie
,
hauing
forge
and
●nvile
in
it
,
as
if
it
were
a
Smiths
shop
:
if
his
name
be
Carpenter
,
by
a
Carpenter
〈◊〉
worke
:
if
Turner
,
by
a
Turne●
if
his
name
be
Stone
,
by
〈◊〉
stone
:
if
Lu●onne
,
by
a
Lute
an●
a
Tunne
.
Secondly
,
a
mans
name
m●
be
remembred
by
the
lik●
name
giuen
to
another
ma●
As
if
a
mans
name
be
Pete●
we
may
remember
it
by
another
man
called
Peter
,
or
b●
the
picture
of
Saint
Peter
hun●
vpon
the
opposite
wall
:
if
h●
name
be
Iohnsonne
,
by
anothe●
man
of
the
same
name
:
if
a
w●mans
name
be
Lucrese
,
it
ma●
be
kept
in
mind
by
the
pictur●
of
Lucrese
:
if
Katharine
,
by
th●
picture
of
Saint
Katharine
.
An●
this
may
suffice
for
Subditia●
Idea's
.
CHAP.
X.
Of
Scriptile
Idea's
.
A
Scriptile
Idea
is
,
whereby
the
thing
to
be
remem●red
,
is
supposed
to
be
written
●n
a
plaine
white
table
hanged
●p
in
the
midst
of
the
opposite
wall
belonging
to
the
roome
wherein
it
is
placed
,
the
frame
●r
border
whereof
is
of
oake
,
very
broad
and
chamfered
.
In
euery
Scriptile
Idea
,
3
things
are
generally
required
.
First
,
that
the
Table
be
not
much
bigger
then
will
containe
that
which
shall
be
written
in
it
.
Secondly
,
that
the
frame
or
border
of
the
Table
,
be
of
the
colour
of
the
Repository
,
wherin
it
standeth
.
As
if
it
stand
in
the
first
Repositorie
,
that
it
be
of
the
colour
o●
gold
;
if
in
the
second
Repositorie
,
that
it
be
of
the
colour
of
siluer
;
if
in
the
third
,
that
it
be
black
;
if
in
the
fourth
,
blue
,
&c.
Thirdly
,
that
the
letters
contained
in
the
Scriptile
Idea
,
be
all
of
such
bigness●
,
as
that
they
may
plainly
be
read
by
him
that
standeth
on
this
side
of
the
Repositorie
;
like
vnto
the
writings
which
we
see
in
Churches
.
And
thus
much
fo●
that
which
is
generally
required
in
all
Scriptile
Idea's
.
Let
vs
now
see
,
what
is
further
to
be
required
in
the
seuerall
kinds
of
them
.
There
are
foure
kindes
of
Scriptile
Idea's
:
A
single
word
,
a
Quotation
,
a
Phrase
,
and
〈◊〉
Sentence
.
A
single
word
and
quota●ion
,
must
be
written
in
a
ta●let
one
foote
and
an
halfe
●road
,
and
a
foote
high
;
and
●heir
first
letter
must
be
a
great
Romane
capitall
letter
of
ex●raordinary
bignesse
aboue
the
●est
,
and
the
transcendencies
of
●he
small
letters
also
,
if
there
be
any
must
be
drawne
much
higher
or
lower
then
is
vsuall
●n
common
writing
.
For
by
●his
meanes
they
are
the
more
easily
attracted
by
the
visuall
facultie
,
and
transferred
to
the
memory
.
By
the
transcendencies
of
the
smal
letters
,
I
meane
the
vpper
and
lower
parts
of
those
letters
,
which
exceed
the
parallell
lines
betweene
which
we
write
.
For
whensoeuer
we
write
,
we
write
,
as
it
were
,
between
two
lines
vnderstood
,
though
not
expressed
.
And
of
the
small
letters
,
some
are
written
wholy
between
the
lines
,
as
these
,
a
c
e
m
n
o
r
s
u
v
w
,
which
for
distinction
sake
may
be
called
Interlineals
,
because
they
are
written
between
the
lines
.
All
other
small
letters
are
extended
further
then
the
lines
,
whereof
they
are
called
Transcendents
.
And
of
these
,
some
are
extended
aboue
the
vpper
line
,
as
these
,
b
d
h
i
k
l
t
:
some
beneath
the
lower
line
,
as
these
,
g
p
q
x
y
z.
Some
both
aboue
the
vpper
line
and
beneath
the
neather
line
,
as
these
,
f
j
s
.
As
to
giue
examples
in
single
words
:
the
word
Canaan
hath
no
transcendents
in
it
;
Naboth
hath
three
,
which
extend
aboue
the
vpper
line
,
b
t
and
h.
Spagyrus
three
,
which
are
●rawne
beneath
the
neather
●ne
,
p
g
and
y.
Iosaphat
hath
●hree
transcendences
aboue
the
●pper
line
,
in
the
letters
s
h
and
〈◊〉
and
two
beneath
the
lower
●ne
,
in
the
letters
s
and
p.
When
therefore
we
haue
●ancied
a
single
word
to
be
●ritten
in
a
tablet
hanging
●pon
the
opposite
wall
,
we
must
apply
our
mind
thereun●o
impensiuely
to
consider
it
,
●nd
especially
the
length
of
it
,
●he
first
letter
,
and
the
transcen●encies
of
the
small
letters
if
●here
be
any
,
till
by
these
con●iderations
the
word
make
some
●mpression
of
it selfe
in
our
●inds
.
That
,
whereas
a
word
●arely
written
,
is
but
feeble
of
〈◊〉
selfe
to
stir
vp
memory
,
yet
●y
these
considerations
and
stay
made
in
bestowing
it
,
〈◊〉
may
worke
some
deeper
impression
in
our
memories
.
A
Quotation
must
be
written
after
the
common
maner
thus
,
2.
Chron.
9.6
.
Math.
5.8
.
And
besides
the
consideratio●
of
the
first
letter
,
and
the
tra●scendences
of
the
small
letters
if
there
be
any
in
it
,
we
mus●
obserue
also
the
numbers
o●
the
Chapter
and
verse
,
but
specially
of
the
Chapter
;
whic●
will
be
very
easie
to
commi●
to
mind
,
in
regard
of
thei●
quantitie
.
For
things
of
quantity
,
next
things
visible
,
are
be●
remembred
.
A
phrase
and
a
short
sentence
of
one
line
in
length
must
be
supposed
to
be
written
in
a
table
three
foot
broa●
and
one
foote
high
,
and
th●
●hiefe
word
therein
,
which
is
〈◊〉
be
accounted
,
that
which
●ost
expresseth
the
subiect
●ereof
,
(
whether
it
stand
in
●●e
beginning
,
middle
or
end
)
〈◊〉
to
be
written
after
the
man●er
of
words
written
alone
;
●hat
is
,
the
first
letter
to
be
a
●●eat
Romane
capitall
letter
,
●nd
the
transcendencies
of
the
●●all
letters
therein
very
large
.
)
●nd
when
we
haue
once
fan●ed
a
phrase
or
short
sentence
〈◊〉
be
written
in
the
table
,
we
●ust
apply
our selues
to
con●der
the
length
of
this
whole
●criptile
Idea
,
specially
the
●hiefe
word
therein
,
and
what
●ace
it
hath
in
the
writing
,
〈◊〉
whether
in
the
beginning
,
●iddle
or
end
:
)
for
by
these
●onsiderations
vsed
in
the
Re●osition
of
Scriptile
Idea's
,
they
are
the
better
remembred
.
If
a
Scriptile
Idea
be
a
lon●
sentence
,
which
cannot
be
co●tained
in
a
line
,
then
let
th●
table
be
imagined
to
be
bro●der
or
deeper
,
as
the
length
〈◊〉
the
Idea
doth
require
.
An●
let
the
forme
of
writing
,
whic●
euery
long
Idea
hath
,
be
suc●
as
may
most
plainly
set
foot●
what
kind
of
sentence
it
do●
expresse
.
Therefore
Distrib●tions
must
be
expressed
by
th●
parts
drawne
to
their
whol●
with
braces
in
this
manner
.
-
The
feasts
of
the
Iewes
besides
the
Sabbaths
,
were

The

So
Syllogismes
are
to
be
distinguished
into
their
Proposition
,
Assumption
and
Conclusion
,
as
:
-
If
the
first
matter
of
all
corporeall
creatures
be
capable
of
any
forme
;
then
though
the
bodies
of
all
men
were
,
dissolued
into
their
first
matter
,
they
may
be
restored
to
their
proper
forme
againe
.
-
But
the
first
matter
of
all
corporeall
creatures
is
capable
of
any
forme
:
according
to
that
Philosophicall
Axiome
,
Materia
prima
est
omnium
formarum
susceptibilis
.
-
Therefore
though
the
bodies
of
all
men
were
dissolued
into
their
first
matter
,
they
may
be
restored
to
their
proper
forme
againe
.
So
Obiections
with
their
Answers
,
are
to
be
distinguished
in
this
maner
.
Obiection
.
Whatsouer
euery
man
must
beleeue
,
is
true
.
(
For
nothing
false
must
be
beleeued
.
)
But
euery
wicked
man
must
beleeue
that
he
shall
be
saued
by
Christ
.
(
For
not
to
beleeue
this
is
infidelitie
,
and
therefore
sinne
.
)
Therefore
euery
wicked
man
must
beleeue
that
he
shall
be
saued
.
Answer
.
Euery
wicked
man
must
beleeue
that
he
shall
be
saued
;
yet
not
absolutely
,
but
vpon
condition
that
he
repent
,
and
beleeue
in
Christ
.
Similitudes
and
all
other
comparisons
both
whose
parts
are
explicated
,
are
to
haue
those
parts
siding
one
another
in
this
sort
:
-
As
there
is
great
difference
between
the
facultie
of
light
and
the
act
of
seeing
:
(
for
the
facultie
is
alwayes
present
with
him
that
hath
his
sight
;
but
the
act
is
often
intermitted
.
)
-
So
there
is
a
great
difference
between
the
facultie
of
faith
and
the
act
of
beleeuing
:
(
for
the
facultie
of
faith
is
alwayes
in
the
Regenerate
after
their
conuersion
;
but
the
act
of
beleeuing
is
sometimes
interrupted
.
)
So
verses
are
to
be
distinguished
by
their
seuerall
lines
:
and
generally
all
other
kindes
of
sentences
which
haue
or
may
haue
a
peculiar
kind
of
writing
by
it selfe
,
ought
here
in
that
maner
to
be
written
.
Furthermore
,
it
is
requisite
,
that
ouer
a
long
Scriptile
Idea
,
one
or
two
of
the
chiefest
words
be
written
in
some
little
●istance
therefrom
,
as
if
it
were
the
title
of
it
,
their
first
●etter
being
a
great
Romane
●apitall
,
and
the
transcenden●ies
of
the
small
letters
produ●ed
in
length
,
after
the
maner
of
words
written
alone
.
As
to
giue
instance
in
the
former
ex●mples
:
ouer
the
first
Scrip●ile
Idea
,
(
which
is
a
distribu●ion
)
these
words
must
be
written
,
Iewish
Feasts
.
Ouer
●he
second
,
(
which
is
a
Syllogisme
)
these
,
First
Matter
.
O●er
the
third
(
which
is
an
Ob●ection
with
the
solution
thereof
)
these
,
Beleeue
saluation
.
Ouer
the
fourth
,
(
which
is
a
similitude
)
these
,
Sight
and
Faith
.
And
hauing
in
our
conceits
written
any
long
Idea
after
this
maner
,
we
must
apply
our selues
intensiuely
t●
consider
the
length
of
the
se●tence
,
the
maner
of
writing
i●
and
the
title
thereof
ouer
i●
together
with
the
first
letter●
and
transcendences
of
the
title
,
letting
our
mind
to
wor●
vpon
these
considerations
fo●
a
while
,
till
the
Idea
be
somewhat
setled
therein
.
CHAP.
XI
.
Of
compound
Idea's
.
HAuing
now
gone
thorough
with
all
the
simple
Idea's
,
I
come
to
Idea'●
that
are
compounded
.
A
compound
Idea
,
is
compounde●
of
two
simple
Idea's
;
whereof
the
one
is
alwayes
a
Scriptil●
Idea
,
and
the
other
is
either
〈◊〉
Direct
Idea
,
or
a
Relatiue
.
A
compound
Idea
therefore
is
of
two
sorts
.
The
first
kind
of
compound
●dea's
,
is
of
them
which
consist
partly
of
a
Direct
Idea
,
●artly
of
a
Scriptile
.
Of
this
●ort
are
,
an
history
painted
in
〈◊〉
faire
table
,
with
verses
vnder●●ath
explaining
it
;
a
libell
or
Epigramme
,
made
vpon
some
●hing
done
,
supposed
to
be
written
in
a
paper
,
and
pasted
vpon
the
opposite
wall
,
and
●he
thing
done
expressed
in
ac●ion
vpon
the
stage
;
An
armed
Knight
bearing
his
Scutcheon
●nd
imprese
written
therein
;
and
the
like
.
The
second
kind
of
com●ound
Idea's
,
is
of
them
which
consist
partly
of
a
Relatiue
Idea
,
and
partly
of
a
Scriptile
.
Of
this
sort
are
innumerable
examples
in
Emblemes
,
written
by
Beza
,
Alciat
,
Peacham
,
and
others
.
For
in
all
Emblemes
,
the
picture
occupying
the
vpper
part
of
the
table
,
is
〈◊〉
Relatiue
Idea
;
and
that
which
is
written
vnderneath
,
a
Scriptile
.
And
thus
much
for
compound
Ideas
,
and
so
concerning
all
the
seuerall
kinde●
of
Idea's
.
CHAP.
XII
.
Of
the
choosing
Idea's
.
IT
is
meet
in
the
next
place
,
to
giue
such
rules
,
whereby
we
may
know
at
the
first
,
with
what
Idea
euery
thing
that
is
to
be
remembred
,
must
be
expressed
.
Touching
which
,
these
six
Rules
following
giue
infal●ible
and
certaine
direction
.
Rule
1.
All
histories
,
things
done
,
fables
,
common
businesses
,
finally
whatsoeuer
is
visible
or
conceiued
vnder
a
visible
forme
,
and
nor
illustrated
by
ought
written
,
ought
to
be
●ayd
vp
in
memory
,
by
a
Di●ect
Idea
in
equall
quantitie
,
greater
or
lesse
,
as
the
nature
of
the
Idea
requireth
.
Rule
2.
All
histories
,
things
done
,
fables
,
morals
,
and
the
●●ke
,
explaned
by
verses
or
other
writing
:
as
also
all
Epigrams
,
Epitaphs
,
Anagrams
,
●mpreses
,
and
libels
,
are
to
be
expressed
by
an
Idea
compounded
of
a
Direct
Idea
and
a
Scriptile
.
Rule
3.
All
Emblemes
and
sentences
exemplified
by
some
notable
instance
,
are
to
be
expressed
by
a
compound
Idea
,
consisting
of
a
Relatiue
and
Scriptile
Idea
.
Rule
4.
All
Charact●rs
,
solitary
letters
,
bare
numbers
,
and
quotations
,
are
to
be
layd
vp
by
a
Scriptile
Idea
.
Rule
5.
All
single
words
and
proper
names
,
expressible
by
a
Subditiall
Idea
,
ought
so
to
be
expressed
.
Rule
6.
All
sentences
,
phrases
,
words
or
names
which
can
not
presently
be
expressed
by
a
Direct
,
a
Relatiue
,
a
Subdititiall
,
or
a
compound
Idea
,
ought
to
be
expressed
by
a
Scriptile
Idea
.
And
this
for
the
choice
of
Idea's
shall
suffice
.
CHAP.
XIII
.
Of
the
maner
of
bestowing
Idea's
in
their
places
.
HItherunto
I
haue
intreated
concerning
Repositories
,
Places
and
Idea's
seuerally
.
Now
I
come
to
the
maner
of
bestowing
Ideas
in
the
places
of
Repositories
.
Wherein
these
rules
following
are
to
be
obserued
.
Rule
1.
Euery
Idea
is
to
be
placed
in
order
:
that
is
to
say
,
that
which
commeth
first
to
mind
,
in
the
first
place
of
the
first
Repositorie
:
That
which
commeth
next
to
mind
,
in
the
second
place
of
the
first
Repositorie
;
The
third
Idea
in
the
first
place
of
the
second
Repositorie
.
The
fourth
,
in
the
second
place
thereof
.
The
fift
,
in
the
first
place
of
the
third
Repositorie
.
The
sixt
,
in
the
second
.
And
so
forth
in
the
rest
of
the
Repositories
,
how
many
soeuer
they
be
:
alwayes
prouided
,
there
be
but
one
Idea
assigned
to
one
place
.
Rule
2.
Let
due
quantitie
,
position
,
and
the
colour
of
the
Repositorie
be
rightly
attributed
to
euery
Idea
,
and
throughly
obserued
and
marked
,
as
belonging
thereunto
.
For
it
can
not
well
be
told
,
how
much
help
and
furtherance
these
3
attributions
,
specially
the
assigning
of
the
colour
of
the
Repositorie
to
euery
Idea
,
do
bring
to
a
deep
imprinting
in
the
memory
,
as
well
as
the
Idea's
themselues
,
as
also
the
order
wherein
they
stand
.
For
by
this
meanes
the
mind
,
when
it
cometh
to
repeate
ouer
the
Idea's
,
hath
one
thing
certainly
knowne
to
belong
to
euery
Idea
to
worke
vpon
:
that
is
to
say
,
the
colour
of
the
Repositorie
,
which
in
one
respect
or
other
he
knoweth
to
be
in
the
Idea
.
Rule
3.
After
the
second
Idea
of
any
Repositorie
is
bestowed
in
its
proper
place
,
let
it
be
considered
,
whether
by
some
proper
fiction
it
may
haue
some
fit
connexion
with
the
former
Idea
,
standing
in
the
same
Repositorie
,
in
respect
of
the
action
thereof
,
in
some
kind
of
maner
affecting
the
former
.
As
for
example
:
imagine
that
the
Idea
placed
in
the
first
room
of
the
Repositorie
,
be
an
old
man
sleeping
in
a
chair●
by
the
fire
side
;
and
that
the
Idea
in
the
second
roome
o●
the
same
Repositorie
,
be
a
black
S●ith
or
Farriar
giuing
an●
horse
a
drench
:
I
fayn
therfore
,
that
the
horse
struggling
and
bounding
vp
with
his
fore
feete
,
doth
awake
the
old
man
sitting
by
the
fire
in
the
former
roome
.
And
this
relation
is
,
as
it
were
,
a
knitting
or
chaining
of
this
Idea
with
the
former
:
so
that
if
we
remember
one
of
them
,
we
cannot
lightly
be
forgetfull
of
the
other
.
If
a
fit
relation
be
not
presently
found
,
by
transferring
the
action
of
the
latter
vnto
the
former
;
then
let
there
be
fought
some
other
agreement
,
which
the
latter
hath
with
the
former
:
either
in
respect
they
do
both
concerne
●he
same
subiect
,
(
as
when
the
●ubiect
of
them
both
is
concerning
warre
,
peace
,
iustice
,
●●●ne
,
patience
&c.
)
or
second●y
,
in
respect
they
are
both
Idea's
of
the
same
kind
,
(
as
when
●oth
of
them
are
direct
Idea's
,
●oth
Relatiues
,
both
Subditi●iall
,
both
Scriptiles
,
or
both
compound
Idea's
.
)
And
if
they
agree
neither
in
the
subiect
,
nor
in
the
kind
of
Idea
,
then
we
are
to
fasten
vpon
that
relation
,
which
they
may
haue
in
respect
of
their
situation
or
position
,
by
considering
their
position
to
be
like
,
if
it
be
like
;
(
as
when
both
Idea's
are
placed
vpon
the
stage
,
both
vpon
a
table
,
both
vpon
the
opposite
wall
,
&c.
)
or
different
if
they
be
of
a
different
situation
,
(
as
when
one
hath
place
vpon
the
stage
,
and
the
other
vpon
the
wall
:
)
for
euen
by
this
consideration
,
both
Idea's
are
the
better
remembred
.
Rule
4.
When
the
latter
Idea
of
any
Repositorie
is
bestowed
,
we
must
repeate
in
our
mind
(
if
time
will
giue
vs
leaue
)
all
the
former
Idea's
of
the
other
houses
.
For
as
a
scholler
by
often
reading
ouer
his
lesson
,
getteth
it
without
booke
:
so
by
often
repeating
these
Idea's
in
our
mind
,
we
shall
the
better
retaine
them
.
Rule
5.
We
must
take
hee●
that
we
ouercharge
not
our
memory
with
a
multitude
of
Idea's
:
for
as
it
is
hurtfull
to
loade
the
stomack
with
more
meat
then
it
can
digest
at
once
;
so
is
it
also
vnprofitable
to
oppresse
the
memory
with
too
●eat
a
multitude
of
Ideas
.
Let
●ch
obseruations
therefore
●sse
as
are
common
and
triall
,
and
let
vs
commit
such
●ly
to
memory
,
as
are
indeed
●emorable
.
The
number
of
●ings
that
may
be
committed
〈◊〉
once
vnto
a
mans
memory
〈◊〉
this
Art
,
are
six
and
thirty
,
●hich
are
abundantly
suffici●t
for
the
memory
to
be
char●ed
withall
at
once
,
and
more
●y
many
peraduenture
then
●e
shall
haue
occasion
at
any
●me
to
vse
.
And
so
much
con●erning
the
choice
of
Ideas
,
●nd
bestowing
them
in
their
●laces
.
CHAP.

.
Concerning
the
practise
of
th●
Art
of
Memorie
.
IT
remaineth
that
now
at
〈◊〉
I
should
illustrate
all
the
f●mer
precepts
of
this
Art
by
〈◊〉
examples
,
that
the
vse
by
t●
practise
thereof
may
be
t●
better
seene
.
I
will
therefo●
shew
the
vse
thereof
:
first
〈◊〉
remembring
businesses
;
●condly
in
remembring
obse●uations
.
First
therefore
concernin●
businesses
.
Suppose
that
a
ma●
riding
alone
towards
a
Fay●
kept
in
some
market
Town
for
some
especiall
business●
and
that
as
he
is
vpon
his
iou●ney
,
diuers
other
businesse
come
into
his
mind
there
to
〈◊〉
done
;
he
must
then
bestow
●m
,
and
lay
them
vp
in
order
〈◊〉
their
places
by
their
Idea's
,
●hey
come
to
mind
.
As
for
●mple
.
The
first
businesse
he
thinks
●on
,
is
to
enquire
the
price
●seed
wheat
in
the
market
.
〈◊〉
him
therefore
suppose
in
〈◊〉
first
place
or
roome
of
the
〈◊〉
Repositorie
,
that
he
seeth
●ers
men
standing
together
●h
sacks
of
corne
,
that
it
may
●y
some
face
of
a
corne
mar●
;
and
that
on
the
nearer
side
the
stage
,
he
seeth
a
country
●n
clad
in
russet
,
with
a
paire
〈◊〉
high
shooes
on
,
powring
●eate
out
of
a
sacke
into
a
〈◊〉
shell
,
the
eares
or
handles
●ereof
are
of
pure
gold
;
that
〈◊〉
this
supposition
the
Idea
may
haue
the
colour
of
the
●positorie
which
is
gold
,
attrib●ted
vnto
it
;
according
to
t●
rule
of
the
sixt
Chapter
.
The
second
businesse
is
〈◊〉
procure
mowers
to
cut
do●
medow
grasse
.
Let
theref●●
be
supposed
in
the
seco●
place
of
the
first
Repositorie
,
or
foure
husbandly
men
to
〈◊〉
whetting
their
sithes
,
the
bla●
whereof
are
of
gold
,
agreeab●
to
the
colour
of
the
Repos●●rie
;
and
that
the
sound
also
whetting
their
sithes
is
perfe●ly
heard
.
The
relation
wh●
this
Idea
hath
vnto
the
form●
is
in
respect
of
situation
:
●●cause
both
Idea's
are
pla●
vpon
the
stage
of
the
first
●●positorie
.
The
third
businesse
is
,
to
●quire
out
one
whose
name
〈◊〉
Fletcher
,
dwelling
in
that
owne
,
and
vnknowne
vnto
●im
.
Let
him
therefore
fancy
●hat
the
first
part
of
the
second
Repositorie
is
turned
,
as
it
were
,
●nto
a
Fletchers
shop
,
wherein
●he
Fletcher
standeth
close
to
●is
stall
,
hauing
a
great
box
of
siluer
arrow
heads
by
him
,
and

The
fiction
of
the
ar●ow
heads
to
be
of
siluer
,
ser●eth
to
attribute
the
colour
of
the
Repositorie
to
the
Idea
.
The
fourth
businesse
is
to
●uy
pepper
.
For
the
remem●rance
of
this
,
the
second
place
of
the
second
Repositorie
,
must
be
supposed
to
be
changed
into
the
form
of
a
Grocers
shop
.
And
that
the
opposite
wall
is
set
forth
with
a
nest
of
boxes
,
whereupon
the
names
of
spices
are
written
,
according
to
the
common
custome
of
Grocers
shops
,
and
the
side
wal●
also
furnished
with
Grocery
ware
:
and
that
two
foote
o●
this
side
the
opposite
wall●
there
is
a
Counter
or
a
shew-boord
and
the
Grocer
standing
vpon
the
further
side
of
it
,
hauing
a
blue
apron
before
him
,
is
weighing
of
pepper
in
a
pair●
of
ballance
,
the
scales
whereo●
are
siluer
,
(
as
is
the
pillar
o●
this
Repositorie
.
)
The
relation
of
this
Idea
to
the
former
,
consisteth
in
this
,
that
both
are
shops
:
The
first
containing
things
saleable
,
that
are
prepared
for
mens
destruction
;
and
this
,
such
things
as
whose
vse
serueth
for
mens
preseruation
.
The
fift
businesse
is
to
speak
with
a
Councellor
.
Let
that
Councellor
then
be
imagined
to
sit
in
a
blacke
gowne
lined
with
veluet
,
in
a
chaire
in
the
middest
of
the
first
place
of
●he
third
Repositorie
,
and
to
●e
turning
ouer
a
booke
of
some
mans
case
,
which
he
hath
●n
his
hand
.
Here
needeth
no
●ttribution
of
colour
,
since
the
Councellors
gowne
is
blacke
of
it selfe
,
which
is
the
proper
colour
of
this
Repository
,
whose
pillar
is
of
ieat
.
The
sixt
businesse
is
to
buy
〈◊〉
yard
of
black
veluet
.
Wherefore
the
second
roome
of
the
●hird
Repositorie
must
be
trans●ormed
,
as
it
were
,
into
a
Mer●ers
shop
,
and
vpon
the
shew-boord
there
must
be
supposed
●o
lie
a
piece
of
blacke
veluet
open
,
the
Mercer
being
on
the
other
side
thereof
praising
an●
commending
it
.
This
Idea
hath
also
of
it selfe
the
colour
of
the
Repositorie
,
as
the
former
had
▪
and
may
be
referred
vnto
it
by
this
imagination
,
that
veluet
(
which
is
the
subiect
o●
this
Idea
)
is
also
the
facing
o●
the
Lawyers
gowne
,
which
sitteth
in
the
former
roome
.
But
I
shall
not
need
to
proceed
any
further
in
giuing
examples
for
remembrance
o●
businesses
,
since
their
Idea'●
for
the
most
part
are
D●rect
and
such
as
nature
it self●
offers
to
our
mind
:
I
wil
therefore
now
proceed
to
giue
examples
of
Obseruations
to
b●
remembred
,
and
shew
how
their
Idea's
are
to
be
bestowe●
in
the
Repositories
following
.
The
first
Obseruation
.
Diogenes
the
Cynicke
,
when
entred
into
Plato's
hall
,
and
〈◊〉
the
table
therein
couered

a

pluckt
〈◊〉
the
carpet
in

it

his

,
saying
;
I
spurne
Plato's
pride
.
Yea
but
(
an●●●red
Plato
)
with
a
greater
●●●de
.
The
Reposition
thereof
.
The
Idea
of
this
Apoph●gme
is
direct
,
and
not
so
●at
,
but
that
it
may
be
con●ned
in
one
of
the
memoriall
●ces
,
nor
so
small
,
but
being
●rein
placed
,
it
may
be
dil●ned
by
one
which
standeth
this
side
of
the
stage
:
therefore
I
suppose
the
Idea
to
〈◊〉
there
layd
vp
in
equall
qua●titie
,
according
to
the
ru●
Chap.
4.
by
imagining
the
fi●
place
of
the
fourth
Reposito●●
(
whose
colour
is
blue
)
to
ha●
both
the
opposite
and
side
w●
hung

t●●
close
vnto
the

there
standeth
a

and
in

middle
of
〈◊〉

as

apparelled
in

And

that

The

Did

?
The
Reposition
thereof
.
This
is
to
be
expressed
by
compound
Idea
,
in
this
ma●ner
.
Imagine
a
faire
large
tab●
about
fiue
or
six
foote
squar●
to
hang
vpon
the
opposite
w●
of
the
second
roome
in
t●
fourth
Repository
;
whose
c●lour
being
blue
,
causeth
th●
frame
of
the
table
to
be
so
to
In
the
vpper
part
of
the
tab●
I
suppose
to
be
painted
in
s●uerall
squares
,
diuided
ea●
from
the
other
by
a
down
right
blue
line
3
inches
broa●
the
destruction
of
Thebes
,
a●●
the
destruction
of
Troy
,
whic●
is
a
night
piece
:
and
that
in
the
lower
part
of
the
table
,
those
foure
verses
before
mentioned
of
the
Poet
Lucretias
,
are
fairly
written
.
In
this
Idea
the
blue
line
of
the
partition
is
to
be
wel
marked
,
because
it
sheweth
the
picture
to
consist
of
seuerall
histories
.
The
relation
which
this
Idea
hath
to
the
former
,
is
taken
from
difference
of
position
,
that
whereas
the
former
Idea
of
this
Repository
hath
place
vpon
the
stage
,
this
is
placed
vpon
the
opposite
wall
.
The
third
Obseruation
.
Euery
thing
which
is
iust
,
is
not
agreeable
to
equitie
.
For
Manlius
Torquatus
did
iustice
,
but
not
equitie
,
when
he
caused
his
valiant
sonne
to
be
bebeaded
;
for
that
he
,
contrary
to
his
commandement
,
being
mightily
prouoked
by
the
insolence
of
the
enemie
,
had
fought
with
them
in
his
absence
,
although
he
returned
with
victorie
.
The
Reposition
.
This
is
to
be
expressed
by
a
direct
Idea
standing
in
the
first
place
of
the
fift
Repository
,
the
colour
of
whose
pillar
is
red
.
I
fancie
therefore
to
stand
therein
a
big
man
in
complete
armour
,
his
beauer
vp
,
of
a
dreadful
and
astounding
countenance
,
hauing
a
plume
of
red
feathers
vpon
his
crest
,
with
a
great
chaine
of
gold
about
his
necke
,
(
bearing
the
signification
of
his
name
Torquatus
)
and
resting
his
right
hand
vpon
a
red
truncheon
applied
to
his
side
;
he
seemeth
earnestly
to
commaund
some
of
the
souldiers
in
red
coates
by
him
,
to
hasten
a
yong
man
pinioned
to
execution
.
The
fourth
Obseruation
.
A
man
in
some
case
may
do
dammage
vnto
his
neighbour
,
though
he
know
it
,
yet
without
iniurie
.
For
if
there
be
two
victualling
houses
together
in
a
towne
,
the
keeper
of
the
one
doth
dammage
to
the
other
,
in
as
much
as
he
seeketh
to
draw
the
guests
to
his
house
:
yet
is
this
dammage
without
iniurie
,
and
therefore
not
punishable
by
any
law
of
the
land
.
The
Reposition
.
The
Idea
of
this
is
also
direct
in
equall
quantitie
.
For
it
is
to
be
supposed
,
that
in
the
opposite
wall
of
the
second
place
of
the
fifth
Repositorie
,
there
is
a
doore
opening
into
a
victualling
house
,
adioyning
vnto
the
Repositorie
,
on
the
back
side
,
hauing
a
red
lattice
window
,
and
railes
before
it
:
and
that
in
the
side
wall
vpon
the
right
hand
,
there
is
a
doore
open
,
leading
into
another
victualling
house
,
adioyning
to
the
end
of
the
Repositorie
,
hauing
a
red
lattice
also
before
the
window
.
Further
,
let
there
be
imagined
some
common
drunkard
to
sit
vpon
a
bench
on
this
side
the
further
Ale-house
,
with
a
kan
of
ale
in
his
hand
;
who
looking
into
the
former
roome
,
and
seeing
Manlius
his
sonne
ready
to
be
caried
away
to
execution
,
pointeth
to
his
kan
,
and
seemeth
to
vtter
these
words
to
Manlius
his
sonne
,
as
he
seeth
him
to
passe
along
by
him
:
Oh
this
were
good
for
thee
now
,
if
thou
mightest
sit
by
it
.
For
such
like
idle
conceits
as
this
,
will
make
a
matter
the
better
to
sticke
in
mind
.
The
fift
Obseruation
.
There
is
no
excellent
wit
,
without
some
madnesse
.
The
Reposition
.
The
Idea
hereof
is
Relatiue
,
committed
to
memory
,
by
supposing
well
knowne
,
to
be
in
the
first
place
of
the
sixt
Repositorie
,
who
through
too
much
intension
of
mind
vpon
his
studies
,
is
fallen
into
a
deepe
phrensie
;
and
that
he
hauing
a
great
yellow
feather
in
his
hat
,
rideth
vp
and
downe
the
stage
vpon
an
hobby-horse
.
The
sixt
Obseruation
.
Ilia
,
called
also
Rhea
,
being
great
with
child
by
Mars
,
had
at
a
birth
two
children
,
Romus
and
Remus
;
whom
she
deliuered
to
a
notable
harlot
,
called
Lupa
,
to
be
by
her
nurced
and
brought
vp
:
of
whom
all
brothel-houses
were
after
called
in
Latine
,
Lupanaria
:
(
as
the
English
word
Harlot
,
was
first
deriued
from
Arletta
,
concubine
of
Robert
Duke
of
Normandie
,
father
of
William
the
Conqueror
.
)
Hence
grew
that
fable
,
that
these
twinne-borne
brethren
weee
nurced
by
a
she
wolfe
,
because
Lupa
in
Latine
signifieth
a
she
wolfe
.
Romus
after
being
King
,
gaue
name
to
Rome
:
but
was
called
by
the
people
,
in
a
kind
of
flatterie
,
by
the
diminutiue
of
his
name
,
Romulus
.
The
Reposition
.
This
is
to
be
layd
vp
by
a
Direct
Idea
,
supposing
that
in
the
second
place
of
the
sixt
Repositorie
,
there
lyeth
vpon
a
pad
of
straw
a
she
wolfe
,
hauing
about
her
necke
a
yellow
collar
,
with
two
infants
sucking
of
her
.
And
that
the
wolfe
setting
out
her
throate
,
howleth
so
deernly
,
that
the
franticke
man
in
the
former
roome
stops
his
dauncing
to
looke
at
her

was

when
being

through
the

countries
of

,
espied
an
oake
neere

rifted

Then
intending
(
as
I
thinke

to
trie

whether
as
yet
there
remained
any
strength
in
his
armes
,
thrusting
his
hands
into
the
rift
of
the
tree
,
he
rent
it
downe

but
the
oake
being
thus
bowed
,
and
drawne
into
two
parts
,
closed
againe
vpon
his
hands
,
as
he
was
still
tugging
thereat
,
and
held
him
there
fast
,
to
become
a
prey
to
the

The
Reposition
.
The
Idea
of
this
obseruation
is
a
Direct
Idea
,
and
must
be
placed
in
the
first
roome
of
the
seuenth
Repositorie
,
the
colour
whereof
is
greene
.
I
suppose
therefore
a
young
oake
with
greene
leaues
:
and
acornes
vpon
it
,
to
grow
vp
out
of
the
middle
of
the
stage
,
being
rifted
in
the
midst
:
and
that
a
big
man
,
broade
shouldered
,
and
apparelled
like
a
Champion
,
after
the
ancient
guize
,
with
a
garland
of
greene
law●ell
vpon
his
head
,
hath
both
his
hands
in
such
manner
inclosed
in
the
oake
,
who
casting
backe
his
head
and
body
,
crieth
aloud
for
help
;
so
that
me
thinks
,
I
see
not
onely
the
bowing
backe
of
his
body
,
and
his
striuing
to
get
loose
,
but
euen
to
heare
with
mine
eares
the
outcrie
which
he
maketh
.
The
eight
obseruation
.
To
driue
forward

with

fables
.
The
Reposition
.
This
Phrase
may
be
committed
to
mind
by
a
Direct
Idea
,
in
this
manner
.
Let
there
be
supposed
in
the
opposit●
wall
a
chimney
,
with
a
goo●
fire
in
it
,
about
which
som●
halfe
a
dozen
women
sit
:
among
the
rest
,
one
being
〈◊〉
very
old
woman
,
and
yet
cla●
in
greene
(
the
colour
of
th●
house
)
(
like
an
ape
in
purple●
telleth
a
tale
to
the
rest
,
liftin●
vp
her
hands
as
she
speaket●
with
such
ridiculous
and
anticke
gesture
and
action
,
as
be
sitteth
a
beldame
gossip
:
wher●
upon
the
whole
quire
of
th●
gossips
burst
out
into
low●
laughing
,
and
holding
thei●
hips
,
with
laughter
and
coughing
,
make
such
a
confuse●
noise
,
that
the
crie
of
Milo
i●
the
former
roome
cannot
b●
heard
.
And
hence
is
deriued
th●
relation
which
this
Idea
hath
vnto
the
former
,
because
they
●re
both
of
them
lowd
soun●ing
Idea's
:
though
the
first
●●und
be
a
lamentable
outcry
;
●nd
the
latter
,
a
sound
of
mirth
●nd
ioy
.
The
ninth
Obseruation
.
Men
are
certainly
more
anci●●t
then
the
gods
of
the
heathen
:
●ecause
men
were
the
makers
of
●hem
.
The
Reposition
.
This
is
expressible
by
a
Di●ect
Idea
;
by
fancying
a
statua●ie
in
a
purple
wastcoate
,
to
be
●n
the
first
place
of
the
eight
Repositorie
(
whose
colour
is

)
fashioning
a
marble

.
The
tenth
Obseruation
.
The
snow
falling
whole
,
and
not
melting
as
it
falleth
,
is
alwayes
of
a
six-angled
figure
;
setting
forth
vnto
vs
the
wondrous
worl●
of
the
Creator
.
The
Reposition
.
The
Idea
of
this
obseruatio●
is
direct
,
but
in
an
augmente●
quantitie
.
For
since
one
flak●
of
snow
is
so
small
,
that
bein●
bestowed
in
a
memoriall
plac●
it
cannot
be
seene

standeth
on
this
side
the
Repositorie
:
therefore
a
great
heap●
of
snow
is
to
be
placed
in
th●
midst
of
the
stage
of
the
secon●
roome
of
the
eight
Repositorie
whose
colour
being
purple
,
admonisheth
that
some
part
o●
the
Idea
must
be
purple
:
an●
therefore
I
suppose
a
purpl●
pendant
to
be
stucke
in
th●
heape
of
snow
.
The
relatio●
of
this
Idea
to
the
former
,
i●
in
respect
of
the
subiect
.
For
each
of
them
hath
great
shew
of
Art
,
though
this
being
the
worke
of
God
,
be
ten
thousand
times
more
admirable
then
the
other
,
which
is
but
the
worke
of
mans
hands
.
The
eleuenth
Obseruation
.
There
are
three
most
beautifull
mothers
of
three
most
deformed
daughters
:
Familiaritie
,
which
bringeth
forth
Contempt
;
Truth
which
bringeth
foorth
Hatred
;
and
Peace
,
which
bringeth
forth
Sloth
.
The
Reposition
.
I
lay
it
vp
by
a
direct
or
right
Idea
in
the
first
place
of
the
ninth
Repository
,
(
whose
colour
is
white
)
after
this
manner
.
I
suppose
three
most
beautifull
women
,
●lad
in
white
sattin
,
with
chapplets
of
white
Roses
vpon
their
heads
,
sitting
vpon
three
low
stooles
,
and
giuing
suck
to
their
three
daughters
,
which
to
looke
vpon
,
are
most
foule
and
hard
fauoured
.
The
twelfth
Obseruation

Astrologia
Iudiciaria
est
negotiocissima
vanitas
.
Basil
.
that
is
,
Iudiciall
Astrologie
is
a
most
busy
vanitie
.
The
Reposition
.
The
Idea
hereof
is
Relatiue
.
For
it
is
exemplified
by
the
history
of
Thales
the
Philosopher
;
who
taking
the
altitude
of
a
starre
with
his
Quadrant
in
the
night
season
,
taking
litle
heed
vnto
his
footing
,
fell
in●o
a
ditch
;
and
was
well
laught
at
by
a
woman
then
seeing
him
;
and
obiecting
vnto
him
his
folly
,
that
was
so
curious
in
looking
after
things
aboue
,
that
he
minded
not
the
ditch
before
him
.
This
is
to
be
exprest
in
an
action
vpon
the
second
part
of
the
stage
belonging
to
the
ninth
Repository
;
whose
colour
being
white
,
I
suppose
his
Quadrant
to
be
couered
with
white
paper
pasted
vpon
it
.
Also
,
that
there
may
be
a
connexion
of
this
Idea
with
the
former
,
I
conceit
it
,
that
the
woman
runneth
to
the
other
three
women
in
the
former
roome
,
to
shew
them
of
Thales
his
fall
.
The
thirteenth
Obseruation
.
-
Whosoeuer
deuoureth
that
which
is
consecrate
to
the
worship
of
God
,
bringeth
destruction
to
his
owne
family
.

-
But
whosoeuer
that
seizeth
into
his
hands
any
part
of
the
glebe
belonging
to
the
Minister
,
and
leaueth
it
to
his
posteritie
,
he
deuoureth
that
which
is
consecrated
vnto
God
.

.
-
Therefore
whosoeuer
seizeth
any
part
of
the
glebe
belonging
to
the
Minister
,
and
leaueth
it
to
his
posteritie
,
he
bringeth
destruction
to
his
owne
family
.
The
Reposition
.
This
Syllogisme
is
to
be
bestowed
by
a
compound
Idea
in
the
first
place
of
the
tenth
Repositorie
,
(
both
the
pillars
whereof
are
supposed
to
be
of

,
according
to
the
last

The

This
likewise
is
to
be
expressed
by
a
compound
Idea
:
faining
a
table
to
hang
vpon
the
wall
of
the
second
place
of
the
eleuenth
Repositorie
,
of
the
same
bignesse
with
the
former
,
and
in
like
manner
bordered
with
a
siluer
frame

And
that
in
the
vpper
part
thereof
is
written
in
great
Hebrew
letters
,
the
name
of
God
Iehouah
,
and
nothing

the
subiect

,
when
nothing
else
was
;
with
a
line
drawne
vnder
it
,
and
those
two
verses
beneath

Both
Idea's
of
this
Repositorie
are
the

in
kind
,
that
is
to
say
,
both
Compound
,
and
by
this

fitly
ioyned

The

Damascus
in

as
appeareth

.
In
the
time
of
our
Sauiour

long
after
,
Antiochia
was
the

citie
;
but
now
Aleppo
is
the
●hiefest
citie
of
Syria
.
The
Reposition
.
This
is
to
be
expressed
by
a
●irect
Idea
,
in
a
contracted
●orme
.
For
since
the
Prouince
●f
Syria
(
which
is
the
subiect
●f
this
sentence
)
is
so
great
,
●hat
a
direct
Idea
thereof
can
●ot
be
contained
in
a
memo●iall
place
in
full
quantitie
,
●herefore
I
suppose
the
oppo●●te
wall
of
the
first
place
of
the
●welfth
Repositories
,
to
haue
a
●●●ge
piece
of
Landtschape
in

colours
painted
there●pon
:
wherein
are
contained
in
a
far
distance
one
from
an
other
,
three
goodly
cities
,
ouer
which
the
seuerall
names
of
Damascus
,
Antiochia
and
Aleppo
,
are
written
in
seuerall
compartements
limited
by
black
lines
very
big
,
because
blacke
is
the
colour
of
this
Repositorie
.
But
it
is
not
necessary
that
I
should
proceed
any
further
,
in
giuing
more
examples
,
because
by
that
which
hath
already
bin
deliuered
,
it
is
euident
enough
with
what
Idea
euery
thing
memorable
is
to
be
expressed
,
and
in
what
place
to
be
bestowed
.
And
now
,
if
you
shall
trie
with
your selfe
,
whether
you
can
repeate
ouer
al●
the
Idea's
in
their
order
,
without
sight
of
the
booke
,
tha●
are
contained
in
this
Chapter
so
that
you
throughly
well
vnderstand
what
you
haue
read
;
I
doubt
not
but
you
wil
freely
confesse
,
that
there
is
great
certaintie
in

Art

CHAP.
XV.
Of
the
Anomaly
of
Reposition
.
THere
is
but
one
Anomaly
or
irregularitie
in
laying
vp
Idea's
:
that
is
to
say
,
when
in
stead
of
a
fained
Repository
;
a
true
place
really
seene
with
our
eyes
is
vsed
,
This
Anomaly
is
admitted
vpon
two
occasions
offered
.
First
,
when
the
thing
it selfe
is
bestowed
really
in
some
place
,
to
be
,
as
it
were
,
the
memoriall
Idea
of
it selfe
.
As
if
a
scholler
sitting
in
his
stody
,
lighteth
vpon
a
booke
,
one
of
whose
sheets
is
sowne
out
of
order
,
and
purposeth
to
haue
it
that
day
mended
;
let
him
lay
it
downe
then
at
the
doore
of
his
study
,
that
when
he
goeth
forth
,
he
may
by
the
sight
thereof
be
put
in
mind
to
take
it
with
him
,
and
so
to
put
it
forth
to
mending
.
Secondly
,
when
presently
after
we
haue
layd
vp
the
Idea
in
our
mind
,
we
must
put
it
out
againe
.
As
for
example
:
if
a
man
be
talking
with
a
rich
man
,
and
whiles
he
is
in
speech
with
him
,
it
commeth
into
his
mind
,
to
speake
vnto
him
in
the
behalfe
of
a
poore
neighbour
of
his
,
the
rich
mans
tenant
:
let
him
then
suppose
that
neighbour
of
his
to
be
there
present
,
standing
or
sitting
in
some
place
,
which
his
eye
hath
designed
,
and
that
he
standeth
there
still
in
sight
,
till
he
be
entred
into
talke
concerning
him
.
Or
,
if
againe
before
he
part
from
him
,
it
commeth
into
his
mind
to
buy
wood
of
him
;
and
that
because
they
are
yet
still
in
sad
talke
vpon
other
matters
,
time
serueth
him
not
to
speake
of
it
;
let
him
then
imagine
himselfe
to
see
a
small
stacke
or
pile
of
wood
,
in
some
certaine
place
which
he
designeth
with
his
eyes
,
and
keepe
still
in
mind
what
Idea
he
hath
there
placed
,
that
he
may
speake
of
it
when
he
seeth
his
time
.
CHAP.

.
Of
Deposition
.
HItherunto
I
haue
spoken
onely
of
the
first
part
of
the
Art
of
Memory
,
called
Reposition
:
it
remaineth
to
speake
somewhat
concerning
the
second
part
,
called
Deposition
.
Deposition
is
,
whereby
things
before
committed
to
memory
,
are
called
to
minde
againe
,
and
either
committed
to
writing
,
or
otherwise
dispatched
,
that
so
it
may
be
put
out
of
our
mind
:
and
the
memoriall
places
after
such
deposition
of
the
Idea's
being
left
emptie
,
may
be
the
fitter
to
receiue
new
Idea's
into
them
.
This
deposition
or
putting
things
out
of
mind
,
must
be
vndertaken
as
soone
as
conueniently
we
can
;
that
the
minde
may
not
be
charged
with
the
burthen
of
them
longer
then
needs
must
;
and
that
we
may
the
sooner
call
them
to
mind
,
seeing
they
were
but
a
little
before
layd
vp
in
our
remembrance
.
But
if
it
falleth
out
,
that
when
we
go
about
to
call
to
mind
any
thing
that
was
before
committed
to
memory
,
the
Idea
thereof
being
more
negligently
layd
vp
,
appeareth
not
;
then
we
must
assay
to
call
it
to
minde
,
by
following
this
course
.
First
,
it
is
knowne
for
certaintie
,
that
euery
Idea
which
lyeth
hid
,
hath
in
some
part
the
colour
of
the
Repositorie
attributed
vnto
it
;
we
must
therefore
first
enquire
,
in
what
maner
the
colour
of
the
Repositorie
was
ascribed
vnto
it
.
For
by
this
very
consideration
commonly
all
Idea's
that
are
obscure
,
are
brought
forth
to
light
.
Secondly
,
if
the
Idea
will
not
by
this
meanes
be
called
to
mind
,
then
next
we
must
trie
,
whether
we
can
bring
it
into
remembrance
,
by
the
relation
which
it
had
vnto
the
other
Idea
placed
in
the
same
Repositorie
,
in
respect
of
the
quantitie
,
situation
,
subiect
,
kind
,
or
of
the
action
of
the
latter
Idea
transferred
vnto
the
former
.
For
one
Idea
of
the
Repositorie
being
certainely
knowne
,
will
not
suffer
the
other
to
lie
hidden
,
but
by
the
mutuall
relation
of
them
one
to
another
(
whereby
they
are
as
it
were
chained
together
)
it
shall
be
compelled
to
come
forth
,
except
the
Reposition
hath
beene
too
slothfull
.
Thirdly
,
if
neither
by
this
meanes
,
we
can
bring
the
Idea
to
remembrance
,
we
must
bethinke
vs
of
what
kind
it
was
,
(
that
is
,
whether
it
were
a
direct
Idea
,
a
Relatiue
,
Subdititiall
,
or
compound
Idea
,
)
or
in
what
quantitie
it
was
layd
vp
,
(
that
is
,
in
an
equall
,
augmented
,
or
contracted
quantitie
,
)
or
what
position
or
situation
it
had
,
(
that
is
,
whether
it
was
placed
vpon
the
wall
,
vpon
a
table
,
vpon
a
cupboord
or
shelfe
,
vpon
the
stage
,
or
vnderneath
it
:
)
or
lastly
,
whether
it
had
any
motion
or
sound
ascribed
vnto
it
.
For
by
such
questions
the
Idea
is
often
found
out
.
Fourthly
,
if
we
know
,
that
the
Idea
which
we
seeke
,
was
indeed
a
Scriptile
Idea
;
but
what
the
writing
it selfe
was
,
we
haue
forgotten
:
then
we
must
search
it
out
,
by
bethinking
vs
of
the
bignesse
of
the
table
,
whether
it
were
one
foote
and
an
halfe
broade
,
for
three
foote
broade
,
or
of
a
bigger
size
,
that
hereby
we
may
know
,
whether
it
were
the
Idea
of
a
single
word
,
Quotation
,
Phrase
,
short
Sentence
or
long
.
If
it
be
found
to
be
a
long
sentence
,
then
we
are
to
examine
the
fashion
and
manner
of
writing
it
;
that
so
we
may
come
to
know
,
what
kinde
of
sentence
it
was
that
we
seeke
for
;
as
that
it
was
a
Distribution
,
a
Syllogisme
,
the
●nswer
of
some
obiection
,
a
●imilitude
,
or
other
kind
of
●entence
,
distinguishable
by
●he
parts
thereof
.
Now
if
by
●his
meanes
we
find
what
kind
of
Scriptile
Idea
that
was
which
now
lyeth
hid
,
as
that
●t
was
a
Quotation
,
short
sen●ence
,
Syllogisme
,
similitude
,
&c.
but
yet
we
know
not
in
particular
any
word
thereof
;
●hen
we
must
seeke
out
the
●hiefe
word
of
the
Idea
,
by
●alling
to
minde
,
if
we
can
,
●he
first
letter
thereof
;
which
●s
to
be
found
out
by
repea●ing
the
Alphabet
in
order
,
●nd
well
expending
and
considering
what
letter
ou●
mind
will
fasten
vpon
.
For
it
will
certainly
fasten
vpon
the
right
letter
,
if
a
blameable
reposition
hath
not
gone
before
.
Now
when
we
haue
found
out
the
first
letter
,
then
we
must
apply
the
other
letters
of
the
Alphabet
that
will
follow
that
better
thereunto
,
to
find
what
is
the
second
letter
;
and
when
we
haue
the
two
first
letters
,
it
is
an
easie
matter
by
the
length
of
the
word
,
the
transcendencies
therein
,
and
the
two
first
letters
,
to
finde
out
the
whole
first
word
,
and
thereby
to
come
to
the
knowledge
of
the
sentence
.
To
conclude
,
if
by
none
of
these
meanes
you
can
find
out
the
Idea
which
you
seeke
for
,
let
it
passe
,
and
trouble
not
your selfe
any
further
about
the
search
of
it
.
For
if
you
reade
or
heare
the
same
word
spoken
by
any
the
same
day
,
or
the
next
day
after
,
it
is
very
likely
that
the
whole
sentence
will
come
then
to
memorie
.
For
as
a
booke
,
which
a
man
hath
negligently
bestowed
in
his
studie
,
is
not
peraduenture
found
when
he
●eeketh
it
,
though
he
remoue
●he
most
of
his
bookes
in
his
●tudie
;
when
notwithstanding
●fterwards
,
taking
foorth
the
●ooke
next
it
,
he
findeth
that
●lso
which
before
was
missing
:
●o
sometimes
it
commeth
to
●asse
,
that
a
sentence
which
●ath
beene
carelesly
commit●ed
to
memorie
,
cannot
be
●ound
when
it
is
sought
for
;
●hich
notwithstanding
when
●e
notion
lying
next
vn●o
it
in
the
store-house
of
the
●emorie
is
called
foorth
,
it
selfe
also
will
come
to
mind
therewith
.
