For then honour, and custom, and civil laws supply the place of natural conscience, and produce, in some degree, the same effects. There are therefore certain laws (which are moreover a priori) which make nature possible; and all empirical laws can exist only by means of experience, and by virtue of those primitive laws through which experience itself becomes possible. In this case, then, there is no succession as regards time, between cause and effect, but they are simultaneous; and still the law holds good. The only big titties you will find here are all natural. For, in this case, the aims which we observe in nature, and often those which we merely fancy to exist, make the investigation of causes a very easy task, by directing us to refer such and such phenomena immediately to the unsearchable will and counsel of the Supreme Wisdom, while we ought to investigate their causes in the general laws of the mechanism of matter.
