E2P13D2

Demonstration — Part II

Latin

Primam partem hujus per se notam suppono. At quod ratione substantiæ non distinguantur corpora, patet tam ex propositione 5 quam 8 partis I sed clarius ex iis quæ in scholio propositionis 15 partis I dicta sunt.

English (Elwes 1883)

The first part of this proposition is, I take it, self--evident. That bodies are not distinguished in respect of substance, is plain both from I. v. and I. viii. It is brought out still more clearly from I. xv, note.

Modern English

The first part of this I take to be self-evident. That bodies are not distinguished in respect of substance is clear from both (E1P5) and (E1P8), and is brought out still more clearly in (E1P15S).
