Common Nature

pg.44 Book Eight - meditations

We are all part of Nature
just as the Nature of the leaf is part of the Nature of the Plant

The nature of Man is part of the whole nature of Intelligence
and like a leaf of the plant
we are given portions -according to to-
Worth, times, substance, cause, Activity

So examine not to compare anything with any other
but by taking all parts together of one thing
and comparing all parts together of another!
