The speculative part of metaphysic, which has especially appropriated this appellation--that which we have called the metaphysic of nature--and which considers everything, as it is (not as it ought to be), by means of a priori conceptions, is divided in the following manner.

 This conclusion from a general view of human nature, we may confirm by particular instances, wherein the force of sympathy is very remarkable. This synthetical and a priori determined unity in relation of perceptions in time is therefore the rule; "All empirical determinations of time must be subject to rules of the general determination of time"; and the analogies of experience, of which we are now about to treat, must be rules of this nature. According to this principle, for example, all evils are but consequences of the limited nature of created beings, that is, negations, because these are the only opposite of reality.
