1 That Distinction of Faculties is a Philosophical Opinion; and not received by all. So that the Will and the Understanding are two distinct Faculties, is an Opinion not received by all. Many there are that make them more Notional than Real: As the East, West, North and South in the Heavens. Not that there are such things, but that such things are feigned, for our clearer Understanding.
It is thought by many of good worth, that Anima intelligit in intellectu: Eligit in Voluntate, &c. That there's no such distinction of Faculties: But that the same Soul doth Understand in the Understanding: VVill in the VVill: Doth Understand, VVill, Love, and do all.
