XXXIV He that seeth the things that are now, hath Seen

all that either was ever, or ever shall be, for all

things are of one kind; and all like one unto another.

Meditate often upon the connection of all things in the world;

and upon the mutual relation that they have one unto another.

For all things are after a sort folded and involved one

within another, and by these means all agree well together.

For one thing is consequent unto another, by local motion,

by natural conspiration and agreement, and by substantial union,

or, reduction of all substances into one.
