possesses   the   true   conception   of   a   thing;   proceeds   to           reproduce   in 

thought   that   thing's   effects。     (4)   See   below;          where   I   speak   of   the 

false   idea。   '64b'   (1)   Observe   that   fiction   regarded   in   itself;   only   differs 

from   dreams   in   that   in   the   latter   we   do   not   perceive   the         external 

causes   which   we   perceive   through   the   senses   while               awake。      (2)   It 

has hence been inferred that representations                      occurring in sleep have 

no   connection   with   objects   external             to   us。   (3)   We   shall   presently 

see that error is the dreaming                of a waking man: if it reaches a certain 

pitch it becomes delirium。 '76z' These are not attributes of God displaying 

His essence;            as I will show in my philosophy。 '76a' (1) This has been 

shown already。         (2) For if such a being               did not exist it would never 

be produced; therefore the mind                    would be able to understand  more 

than nature could furnish;                and this has been shown above to be false。 

'78a'     (1)  That    is;  it  is  known    that   the   senses    sometimes      deceive     us。 

(2)   But   it   is   only   known   confusedly;   for   it   is   not   known   how        they 

deceive      us。  '83d'    (1)  If  the   duration    be   indefinite;    the  recollection     is 

imperfect;   this   everyone   seems   to   have   learnt   from   nature。              (2)   For 

we often ask; to strengthen our belief in something                        we hear of; when 

and    where     it  happened;      though    ideas         themselves       have    their   own 

duration in the mind; yet; as we                   are wont to determine duration by

the aid of some measure                 of motion which; again; takes place by aid 

of    imagination;             we     preserve     no   memory       connected      with   pure 

intellect。   '91e'   The   chief   rule   of   this   part   is;   as   appears   from   the   first 

part; to review all the ideas coming to us through pure                       intellect; so as 

to distinguish them from such as we imagine:                       the distinction will be 

shown   through   the   properties   of   each;             namely;   of   the   imagination 

and of the understanding。 '92f' Observe that it is thereby manifest that we 

cannot     understand            anything      of   nature    without    at  the   same    time 

increasing our            knowledge of the first cause; or God。
