| Paragraph 1 |
Let us return to the subject of our inquiry, which is substance. |
| Paragraph 2 |
Further, substance means that which is not predicable of a subject,
but the universal is predicable of some subject always. |
| Paragraph 3 |
But perhaps the universal, while it cannot be substance in the way
in which the essence is so, can be present in this; |
| Paragraph 4 |
If, then, we view the matter from these standpoints, it is plain
that no universal attribute is a substance, and this is plain also
from the fact that no common predicate indicates a 'this', but rather
a 'such'. |
| Paragraph 5 |
The conclusion is evident also from the following consideration. |
