To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The inconsistence of these opinions, both with reason and observation, cannot, I think, fail to strike every one who takes a proper view of the phenomena. Whether the ultimate particles of a body, such as water, are all alike, that is, of the same figure, weight, &c. Is a question of some importance. From what is known, we have no reason to apprehend a diversity in these par- ticulars : if it does exist in water, it must equally exist in the elements constituting water, namely, hydrogen and oxy...gen. Now it is scarcely possible to conceive how the aggregates of dissimilar particles should be so uniformly the same. If some of the particles of water were heavier than others, if a parcel of the liquid on any occasion were constituted principally of these heavier particles, it must be supposed to affect the specific gravity of the mass, a circumstance not known. Similar observations may be made on other substances. Therefore we may conclude that the ultimate particles of all homogeneous bodies are perfectly alike in weight, figure, &c.
