Excerpt from Thought and Language: An Essay, Having in View the Revival, Correction, and Exclusive Establishment of Locke's Philosophy

Addison speaks the common Opinion when, in Spectator 166, he says, The world is a Copy or tran script Of those ideas which are in the mind of the First Being, and those ideas which are in the mind Of man are a transcript of the world. To this we may add, that words are the transcript of those ideas which are in the mind of man, and that writing or printing is the transcript of words.
