| Paragraph 1 |
Just as an attribute A may (as we saw) be atomically connected
with a subject B, so its disconnexion may be atomic. |
| Paragraph 2 |
all A is C,
|
| Paragraph 3 |
no B is C,
|
| Paragraph 4 |
therefore no B is A. |
| Paragraph 5 |
Or if it is B which has a genus D, we have
|
| Paragraph 6 |
all B is D,
|
| Paragraph 7 |
no D is A,
|
| Paragraph 8 |
therefore no B is A, by syllogism; |
| Paragraph 9 |
and the proof will be similar if both A and B have a genus. |
| Paragraph 10 |
Hence it is clear that one thing may be atomically
disconnected from
another, and we have stated when and how this is possible. |
