1The notions of general rules or principles born in us, and with us, such as are the difference between things honest and dishonest, numbering, understanding of consequences in discourse and reasoning, &c. cannot come by chance, or from a sensible nature common to us with brute beasts, but are necessarily in-bred in us by some intelligent cause, which is God: whereupon we frame this Syllogism; Notions are not engendered nor have their being but from a cause intelligent (for no man maketh another wise who himself is not wise:) But in men there are notions not coming by use, nor received from men: Therefore they are from God. 2The Gentiles show the effect of the law written in their hearts. Man is the image of God, &c.
