E5P4C

Corollary — Part V

Latin

Hinc sequitur nullum esse affectum cujus non possumus aliquem clarum et distinctum formare conceptum. Est namque affectus corporis affectionis idea (per generalem affectuum definitionem) quæ propterea (per propositionem præcedentem) aliquem clarum et distinctum involvere debet conceptum.

English (Elwes 1883)

Hence it follows that there is no emotion, whereof we cannot form some clear and distinct conception. For an emotion is the idea of a modification of the body (by the general Def. of the Emotions), and must therefore (by the preceding Prop.) involve some clear and distinct conception.

Modern English

It follows that there is no affect of which we cannot form some clear and distinct concept. For an affect is the idea of a bodily affection (E3DA49), which must therefore (E5P4) involve some clear and distinct concept.
