...incomparably harder than any porous bodies compounded of them ; even so very hard as never to wear or break in pieces ; no ordinary power being able to divide what God himself made one in the first creation." This pronouncement as to the atomic constitution of matter dates from about 1700 and, as a precise... | |

...incomparably harder than any porous bodies compounded of them; even so very hard as never to wear or break in pieces ; no ordinary power being able to divide what God himself made one in the first creation. While the particles continue entire, they may compose bodies of one and the same nature and texture... | |

...incomparably harder than any porous bodies compounded of them ; even so very hard as never to wear or break in pieces ; no ordinary power being able to divide what God himself made one in the first creation." The great authority of Newton was a powerful support to the atomic conception of matter, but it was... | |
