It is not that the light ~is condensed round the 164 1, 67 | sense, we must conclude that light cannot be a body.~Aquin.: 165 1, 67 | Reply OBJ 1: Augustine takes light to be a luminous body in 166 1, 67 | 2: Aristotle pronounces light to be fire existing in its 167 1, 67 | properties are assigned to light metaphorically, ~and might 168 1, 67 | Thes.

For light is common to terrestrial 212 1, 67 | distinction the production of light should take first ~place, 213 1, 67 | take first ~place, since light is a form of the primary 214 1, 67 | things are made manifest by light.
