[*Footnote; This ideal of the ens realissimum--although merely a mental representation--is first objectivized, that is, has an objective existence attributed to it, then hypostatized, and finally, by the natural progress of reason to the completion of unity, personified, as we shall show presently. The same principle makes us easily entertain this opinion of the continued existence of body. The power necessarily implies the effect; and therefore there is a just foundation for drawing a conclusion from the existence of one object to that of its usual attendant. And thus I should deny the existence of an infinite, without, however affirming the existence of a finite world. This idea is a legislative one; and hence it is very natural that we should assume the existence of a legislative reason corresponding to it, from which the systematic unity of nature- the object of the operations of reason--must be derived. In the case of probability the contrary chances are so far related, that they determine concerning the existence or non-existence of the same object.
