CHAPTER V. OF SIMPLE IDEAS OF DIVERS SENSES.

Project Gutenberg EPUB3 edition Locke, John
Open passage
Ideas received both by seeing and touching.
Open passage
The ideas we get by more than one sense are, of SPACE or EXTENSION, FIGURE, REST, and MOTION. For these make perceivable impressions, both on the eyes and touch; and we can receive and convey into our minds the ideas of the extension, figure, motion, and rest of bodies, both by seeing and feeling. But having occasion to speak more at large of these in another place, I here only enumerate them.
