._ The omniformity of the soul is the having in her nature
all forms, latent at least, and power of awaking them into act, upon
occasion.
_Out-world._ and _Out-Heaven._ The sensible world, the visible Heaven.

_Psychicall_, }

_Parallax_, }

_Parturient._ See, _Vaticinant_.
_Phantasie._ _Lower phantasie_, is that which resides in the Mundane
spirit of a man, See _Memory_.
Q
_Quantitative._ Forms _quantitative_, are such sensible energies as
arise from the complexion of many natures together, at whose discretion
they vanish. That's the seventh Orb of things, though broken and not
filling all as the other do. But if you take it for the whole sensible
world, it is entire, and is the same that _Tasis_ in Psycozoia. But the
centre of _Tasis_, viz. the multiplication of the reall _Cuspis_ of the
_Cone_ (for _Hyle_ that is set for the most contract point of the
_Cuspis_ is scarce to be reckoned among realities) that immense
diffusion of atoms, is to be referred to _Psyche_, as an internall
vegetative act, and so belongs to _Physis_ the lowest order of life. For
as that warmth that the sense doth afford the body, is not rationall,
sensitive, or imaginative, but vegetative; So this, #shamayim# _i.e._
liquid fire, which _Psyche_ sends out, and is the outmost, last, and
lowest operation from her self, is also vegetative.
R
_Rhomboides._ See Interpr. general.
_Reason._ I understand by Reason, the deduction of one thing from
another, which I conceive proceeds from a kind of continuitie of
phantasmes: and is something like the moving of a cord at one end; the
parts next it rise with it. And by this concatenation of phantasmes I
conceive, that both brutes and men are moved in reasonable wayes and
methods in their ordinary externall actions.
_Rayes._ The rayes of an essence is its energie. See _Energie_.
_Reduplicative._ That is reduplicative, which is not onely in this
point, but also in another, having a kind of circumscribed ubiquitie,
_viz._ in its own sphear. And this is either by being in that sphear
omnipresent it self, as the soul is said to be in the body _tota in toto
& tota in qualibet parte_, or else at least by propagation of rayes,
which is the image of it self; and so are divers sensible objects
_Reduplicative_, as light, colours, sounds. And I make account either of
these wayes justly denominate
