Inflammation 125 The first [mode] is by adhesion without granulation; this Galen termed re-union by the first intention; the second is re-union by granulation..re-union by the seond intention. 1858 J. Brown Rab in Horæ Subsecivæ 1st Ser. 308 The wound healed ‘by the first intention’. 11. Logic. The direction or application of the mind to an object; a conception formed by directing the mind to some object; a general concept. first intentions, primary conceptions of things, formed by the first or direct application of the mind to the things themselves; e.g. the concepts of a tree, an oak. second intentions, secondary conceptions formed by the application of thought to first intentions in their relations to each other; e.g. the concepts of genus, species, variety, property, accident, difference, identity.The introduction of these terms is due to the early Latin translation of Avicenna, in which the Arabic maʿqūlāt ‘perceptions, notions’, plural of maʿqūl ‘what is perceived by the intellect, intelligible, known’, is rendered by intentiones. Thus tr. Avicenna Metaph. I, 2 (Prantl II. 321) Subjectum vero logicæ, sicut scisti, sunt intentiones intellectæ secundo [al-maʿqūlāt al-þāniyah], quæ apponuntur intentionibus primo intellectis [al-maʿqūlāt al-ūlāy], secundum quod per eas pervenitur de cognito ad incognitum. Hence in Albertus Magnus (1193–1280) Metaph. I; I, 1 (opposed to ed. Jammy, Lugd. 1651, III. 3/1) Scientiæ logicæ non considerant ens et partem entis aliquam, sed intentiones secundas circa res per sermonem positas, per quas viæ habentur veniendi de noto ad ignotum. Pacius ( Aristot. Organ., 1584) identifies intentio with notio ‘notion’: ‘prima notio seu prima intentio’.

Mansel Artis Logicæ Rudim. of Aldrich (ed. 2) 20 First Intentions, as conceptions of things, are predicable of the individuals conceived under them..Second Intentions are not so predicable..When Genus is said to be predicable of Species, it is not meant that we can predicate the one second Intention of the other, so as to say, ‘Species is Genus’; but that the first intention ‘animal’ is predicable of the first intention ‘man’; the relation of the one to the other being expressed by the second intentions ‘genus’ and ‘species’. For this reason, Logic was said [by Avicenna] to treat of second intentions applied to first. 1864 F. C. Bowen Treat. Logic v. 112. 12. Theology. a.
