Dr.  CLARKEs  Second  Reply.
upon,  where  it  is  not  present;  than  it  can
Be,  where  it  is  not.
The  Soul's  being ¬
  Indivisible,  does  not  prove  it  to  be  present ¬
  only  in  a  mere  Point.  Space,  finite  or
infinite,  is  absolutely  indivisible,  even  so
much  as  in  Thought;  (To  imagine  its
Parts  moved  from  each  other,  is  to  imagine ¬
  them  *  moved  out  of  themselves;)  and
yet  Space  is  not  a  mere  Point.
5.  God  perceives  Things,  not  indeed  by
his  simple  Presence  to  them,  nor  yet  by  his
Operation  upon  them,  but  by  his  being  a
Living  and  Intelligent,  as  well  as  an  Omnipresent -
  Substance.  The  Soul  likewise,
(within  its  narrow  Sphere,)  not  by  its  simple ¬
  Presence,  but  by  its  being  a  Living  Substance, ¬
  perceives  the  Images  to  which  it  is
present  ;  and  which,  without  being  present
to  them,  it  could  not  perceive.
6  &  7.  'Tis  very  true,  that  the  Excellency ¬
  of  God's  Workmanship  does  not  consist
in  its  showing  the  Power  only,  but  in  its
ſhowing  the  Wisdom  also  of  its  Author.
