propositions so arranged that the predicate of each one that
precedes forms the subject of each one that follows, and the
conclusion unites the subject of the first proposition with
the predicate of the last proposition, as in following

The soul is a thinking agent; A thinking agent can not
be severed into parts; That which can not be severed
