We suppose, but are never able to prove, that there must be a resemblance betwixt those objects, of which we have had experience, and those which lie beyond the reach of our discovery. Unluckily all these positive assertions are contrary to that very experience, which is pleaded for them, nor have we any idea of self, after the manner it is here explained. Either, first, I may assume that the conceptions, by which I effect this determination, conform to the object--and in this case I am reduced to the same perplexity as before; or secondly, I may assume that the objects, or, which is the same thing, that experience, in which alone as given objects they are cognized, conform to my conceptions--and then I am at no loss how to proceed. 3. That whose coherence with the real is determined according to universal conditions of experience is (exists) necessary.
