I might have to agree, as he connects 'god' to this 'nature' in the previous section.
However, he does present an interesting position vis the relationships 'we' make when looking at things.
To quote him from a little later in that section...
For example, because any substance which ceases to endure ceases also to exist,
duration is not distinct from substance except in thought; and in general all the modes
of thinking which we consider as in objects differ only in thought, as well from the
objects of which they are thought as from each other in a common object.
