To the second objection, I deny the consequence. In proof, I distinguish the major premise: a term is a part of the proposition of which it is a term, and is distinct from that proposition—I grant the major; a term is a part of a proposition of which it is not a term, and is distinct from that proposition—I deny the major. I likewise distinguish the minor premise: a part is distinct from the whole of which it is a part—I grant the minor; a part is distinct from a whole of which it is not a part, but is itself a whole and is ordered as a part to another whole—I deny the minor.
