  9   1,   1 |            me with many thoughts on this subject, I do not fear but

 15   1,   5 |            it is better to speak in this way: The Trinity, one God,
 16   1,   6 |       desired to say. How do I know this, except from the fact that

 18   1,   6 |             called unspeakable. And this opposition of words is rather

 20   1,   8 |           that of cattle; and above this, again, they place intelligent
 21   1,   8 |           And, perceiving that even this is subject to change, they
 22   1,   8 |           men never caught sight of this wisdom, they could never
 23   1,   8 |          that is subject to change. This will be evident, if we consider
 24   1,   9 |          who sees, but shrinks from this truth, is weak in his mental
 25   1,  10 |     perceived. And let us look upon this purification as a kind of
 26   1,  11 |                              But of this we should have been wholly
 27   1,  12 |          grown into the likeness of this world, and are therefore
 28   1,  13 |            what way did He come but this, "The Word was made flesh,

 34   1,  19 |            put on incorruption, and this mortal shall put on immortality.

 36   1,  22 |             too for God's sake. For this is the law of love that
 37   1,  22 |          and soul, and mind. For in this way, loving his neighbour
 38   1,  23 |            that is, its fellow-men, this is a reach of arrogance
 39   1,  24 |             then, hates himself. On this point, indeed, no question
 40   1,  24 |   abstinence and toil, those who do this in the right spirit do it
 41   1,  24 |           on the other hand, who do this in a perverse spirit, make
 42   1,  24 |             a natural enemy. And in this matter they are led astray
 43   1,  24 |          the one to the other." For this is said of the carnal habit
 44   1,  24 |            to all eternity; even in this life we must make it an
 45   1,  24 |         against the soul. And until this shall take place, "the flesh
 46   1,  24 |         would overbalance the loss. This and other indications of
 47   1,  25 |            point so very plain, but this is just what the error of
 48   1,  29 |           can to remove it. Now, if this be so, what does it become
 49   1,  30 |             There arises further in this connection a question about
 50   1,  30 |            the more we enjoy Him in this life as through a glass
 51   1,  30 |             nobody was neighbour to this man except him who took
 52   1,  30 |      question admitted the truth of this when he was himself interrogated
 53   1,  30 |          teaches when he says: "For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery,
 54   1,  30 |             briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt
 55   1,  30 |            not embrace every man in this precept, is compelled to
 56   1,  30 |         nobody but a fool would say this, it is clear that every
 57   1,  30 |           of Holy Scripture. And on this ground even God Himself,
 58   1,  31 |                              And on this ground, when we say that
 59   1,  32 |           to go without reward. Now this is our highest reward, that
 60   1,  33 |            the proud angel arrogate this to themselves, and are glad
 61   1,  33 |              And if you pass beyond this delight, and make it a means
 62   1,  33 |      properly said to enjoy it. And this we must never do except
 63   1,  34 |          further need of it; yet by this way all must commence their
 64   1,  35 |            discussion about things, this is the sum: that we should
 65   1,  35 |           of God that we might know this truth and be able to act
 66   1,  36 |           does not tend to build up this twofold love of God and
 67   1,  37 |            he cannot harmonize with this meaning. And if he admits
 68   1,  38 |           we reach it! For there is this great difference between
 69   1,  39 |            so far as is possible in this life; for, in comparison
 70   1,  40 |             love. And he joins with this "a good conscience," in
 71   1,  40 |            has already been said on this subject in other volumes,
 72   1,  40 |            or by myself. And so let this be the end of the present
 73   2,   1 |        subject of signs, I lay down this direction, not to attend
 74   2,   1 |           an animal whose footprint this is has passed by; and when
 75   2,   1 |        animal passing by belongs to this class of signs. And the
 76   2,   1 |       intention of making it known. This class of signs however,
 77   2,   1 |      present. But as it comes under this division of the subject,
 78   2,   2 |             to consider and discuss this class of signs so far as
 79   2,   2 |             the matter in hand. And this part of the subject I exclude
 80   2,   2 |           exclude from the scope of this work as not necessary to
 81   2,   3 |          the man to whom we wish by this sign to impart our desire.
 82   2,   4 |         heaven was an indication of this arrogance of spirit; and
 83   2,   6 |             I do not doubt that all this was divinely arranged for
 84   2,   6 |             say, that if a man says this, he does not please his
 85   2,   6 |       language, without the help of this figure? And yet, I don't
 86   2,   7 |       desire and what to avoid. Now this fear will of necessity excite
 87   2,   7 |         undertaken to treat. For in this every earnest student of
 88   2,   7 |            entangled in the love of this world i.e., of temporal
 89   2,   7 |     boastful, but sorrowful. And in this frame of mind he implores
 90   2,   7 |         after righteousness. For in this frame of mind he extricates
 91   2,   7 |            power, he has gazed upon this object shining from afar,
 92   2,   7 |           it has contracted. And at this stage he exercises himself
 93   2,   7 |           as far as possible die to this world. For men see Him just
 94   2,   7 |          just so far as they die to this world; and so far as they
 95   2,   7 |           to wander as strangers in this world, even though our conversation
 96   2,   7 |   conversation be in heaven. And at this stage, too, a man so purges
 97   2,   7 |          the annoyances which beset this life. Such a son ascends
 98   2,   8 |           greater authority (though this is not a very likely thing
 99   2,   8 |           Scripture on which we say this judgment is to be exercised,
100   2,   9 |             of God. And in pursuing this search the first rule to
101   2,   9 |            the previous book. After this, when we have made ourselves
102   2,   9 |           doubtful passages. And in this matter memory counts for
103   2,  10 |             Latin tongue call it by this name. Signs are figurative
104   2,  11 |            of another language. And this happens chiefly in the case
105   2,  11 |             above are said to be of this kind, Racha expressing the
106   2,  12 |                                 And this circumstance would assist
107   2,  12 |            Now translations such as this are not obscure, but false;
108   2,  12 |             but to correct texts of this sort. For the same reason
109   2,  12 |   translated the word "calves;" and this error has crept into so
110   2,  12 |           in the earth by roots. In this passage, indeed, the rest
111   2,  12 |          the context also justifies this translation. ~
112   2,  13 |             offended in a matter of this kind, just in proportion
113   2,  13 |         more disposed to think that this is simply the idiom of another
114   2,  13 |       learned man would prefer that this should be corrected, and
115   2,  13 |            the singers. Mistakes of this kind, then, if a man do
116   2,  13 |            any one should retain in this passage the Greek idiom,
117   2,  14 |          found in Latin authors. In this matter, too, the great number
118   2,  15 |   comparison with an authority like this, not to speak of preferring
119   2,  16 |   explaining the figure involved in this action cannot be got over.
120   2,  16 |       passage of time we are taught this very lesson of despising
121   2,  16 |             which it is made up. In this number ten, therefore, when
122   2,  16 |             fast for forty days. Of this we are admonished by the
123   2,  16 |           of the Pentecost, and how this number taken thrice on account
124   2,  16 |           shuts out the reader from this instruction. ~
125   2,  19 |           But to explain more fully this whole topic (for it is one
126   2,  20 |             as to celebrate. And to this class belong, but with a
127   2,  20 |           haruspices and augurs. In this class we must place also
128   2,  20 |        haste for a real surgeon. To this class, too, belong the following
129   2,  21 |             Nor can we exclude from this kind of superstition those
130   2,  21 |            goes to an astrologer of this kind, he gives money that
131   2,  21 |           those who first fell into this error, and handed it on
132   2,  21 |            honour on those men. And this is not to be wondered at,
133   2,  21 |           and honour of Caesar. And this would, perhaps, have been
134   2,  21 |         Venus had given her name to this star before him, and could
135   2,  21 |           Augustus Caesar; and from this instance any one who cares
136   2,  21 |          observe the point at which this movement has arrived, by
137   2,  22 |        acquaintance with matters of this kind (which, indeed, are
138   2,  22 |          fit to be unlearnt again), this superstition is refuted
139   2,  22 |          astrologer cannot discover this in the constellations, and
140   2,  23 |                              For in this way it comes to pass that
141   2,  23 |             God is not silent about this species of fornication of
142   2,  23 |                         All arts of this sort, therefore, are either
143   2,  24 |           knows both languages uses this letter in a different sense
144   2,  24 |             man's observations. And this appears quite plainly in
145   2,  25 |             And we may well believe this, because even now, if any
146   2,  25 |         statues, and other works of this kind, which are intended
147   2,  25 |         they are likenesses of. And this whole class are to be reckoned
148   2,  25 |                                     This whole class of human arrangements,
149   2,  26 |            have spoken of above. To this class also belong shorthand
150   2,  28 |            in building; so that, as this cannot be referred to our
151   2,  29 |          who are ignorant of it. To this species belongs all that
152   2,  29 |            and other bodies. And of this species I have treated above,
153   2,  29 |          above, and have shown that this kind of knowledge is serviceable
154   2,  29 |             say: If you bruise down this herb and drink it, it will
155   2,  29 |         another to say: If you hang this herb round your neck, it
156   2,  29 |   thoroughly known to very few. And this knowledge, although in itself
157   2,  29 |         what my views are about all this knowledge, so far as regards
158   2,  31 |             has given his assent to this also, the first draws his
159   2,  31 |          you are not a man." Now at this sort of ensnaring arguments,
160   2,  31 |     preaching of those who declared this fact was not in vain, nor
161   2,  32 |            it is so. And it is upon this rule that the reasoning
162   2,  32 |            to overthrow. Next, from this antecedent, the assertion,
163   2,  32 |           Christ is not risen." But this consequence is false, for
164   2,  32 |   resurrection of the dead. Now all this is briefly expressed thus:
165   2,  32 |           resurrection of the dead. This rule, then, that when the
166   2,  32 |             pointed out by him. And this rule has reference to the
167   2,  33 |                                  In this passage, however, where
168   2,  33 |             animal, it has a voice. This being admitted, then, when
169   2,  33 |         snail is not an animal. Now this conclusion is false, but
170   2,  33 |        propounds the statement, "If this man is just, he is good,"
171   2,  33 |            just;" and when we admit this too, he draws the conclusion, "
172   2,  34 |              plume themselves as if this involved also the truth
173   2,  35 |            to be omitted that does. This is true, even though the
174   2,  35 |            we declare it to be; and this definition is true, although
175   2,  37 |                                     This art, however, when it is
176   2,  38 |           dullest apprehension that this was not created by man,
177   2,  38 |             man, I say, who acts in this way may seem to be learned,
178   2,  39 |          sake of the necessities of this life we must not neglect
179   2,  39 |             in regard to matters of this kind, making it unnecessary
180   2,  39 |       advantage of his brethren. In this way he might arrange in
181   2,  39 |             his account to writing. This might also be done in relation
182   2,  39 |            to me it cannot, because this runs like a system of nerves
183   2,  40 |             a better use, not doing this on their own authority,
184   2,  40 |           which is indispensable in this life, we must take and turn
185   2,  40 |   prefiguring what happens now. And this I say without prejudice
186   2,  41 |       hyssop to mark them with. Now this is a meek and lowly herb,
187   2,  41 |          fixed in the earth. And by this sign of the cross all Christian
188   2,  41 |         sacraments. And purified by this Christian action, we shall
189   3, arg |           unknown signs, goes on in this third book to treat of ambiguous
190   3,   2 |            in principio apud Deum" (This word was in the beginning

193   3,   2 |        translators who have omitted this particle have preferred
194   3,   2 |             betwixt two]; and after this point follows: "concupiscentiam

198   3,   3 |        height of madness to believe this, the passage will be pronounced
199   3,   3 |            and an interrogative was this, that an inquiry admits

204   3,   4 |     habuimus fratres in vobis", But this is a rather dangerous liberty
205   3,   5 |           of the apostle applies in this case too: "The letter killeth,

207   3,   6 |            referred, still they had this conviction rooted in their
208   3,   6 |           And the apostle describes this bondage as being like to
209   3,   6 |            the Gentile churches did this, because men who had for

211   3,   7 |            used with a reference to this explanation of it, unless
212   3,   9 |     carnality is to be overcome. To this class of spiritual persons

226   3,  16 |        thirst, give him drink;" and this is beyond doubt a command
227   3,  16 |       sinner." The latter clause of this sentence seems to forbid
228   3,  18 |            life. For no one will do this except lust has dominion
229   3,  18 |           matters are recorded with this useful design, that mere

253   3,  29 |             go over all the rest in this way; for the speech of the

255   3,  29 |           unacquainted with; and in this way many obscure passages
256   3,  30 |          far from being embraced in this number of seven, that the
257   3,  30 |          themselves. And throughout this long and full discussion,
258   3,  30 |      whatever is made of the rules. This is enough for an example,
259   3,  30 |        books. For he thus commences this very book: "Of all the things

262   3,  32 |           the body of the Lord; but this indeed is not a suitable
263   3,  32 |            in His Church. And hence this rule might be designated
264   3,  32 |    Concerning the mixed Church. Now this rule requires the reader
265   3,  32 |           sacraments. An example of this is that passage in the Song
266   3,  32 |             be at present both; and this because the good fish and

268   3,  33 |        named, of grace and the law. This, however, seems to me to
269   3,  33 |          the want of clear views on this question that originated,
270   3,  33 |            of Tichonius to clear up this point were good, but not
271   3,  33 |          not come into contact with this heresy, which has arisen
272   3,  33 |            attentive and anxious on this point, namely, that even
273   3,  33 |            God, when he learns from this passage, and believes, that
274   3,  33 |     testimonies besides which prove this. But I am not now treating
275   3,  33 |            I am not now treating of this doctrine. I have, however,
276   3,  34 |         fitly to the whole of which this is a part; or, as our author
277   3,  34 |           it, to the genus of which this is a species. And hence
278   3,  34 |             easy to understand that this applies to that house of
279   3,  34 |            uncleannesses." Now that this is a prophecy of the New
280   3,  34 |             an evident reference to this place where the prophet

284   3,  35 |         Scripture. And he says that this rule applies in two ways:
285   3,  35 |            one evangelist says that this event occurred "after eight
286   3,  35 |             days between these two. This figure of speech, which

288   3,  36 |             if we do not understand this, from applying the rule
289   3,  36 |            of four streams; and all this has reference to the arrangements
290   3,  36 |             of the garden. And when this is finished, there is a
291   3,  36 |            of events came after all this: "And the Lord God took
292   3,  36 |        speech." Now the addition of this sentence, "And the whole

297   3,  37 |           and which to the body; so this last rule shows us that

305   4,   1 |             to teach them either in this work or any other. ~
306   4,   2 |             such a fool as to think this wisdom? Since, then, the
307   4,   3 |           the theories and rules on this subject (to which, when
308   4,   3 |            any one who cannot learn this art quickly can never thoroughly
309   4,   3 |            learn it at all. Whether this be true or not, why need
310   4,   3 |             we inquire? For even if this art can occasionally be
311   4,   3 |           though he does not aim at this, but is solely intent on
312   4,   3 |           well, and, in order to do this, think of the rules of speaking
313   4,   3 |        themselves to be the case in this respect? We know numbers
314   4,   4 |           and in the performance of this task to conciliate the hostile,
315   4,   5 |           he says must be true. And this opinion is held even by
316   4,   5 |          forced by truth to confess this in the very books which
317   4,   5 |           sons and the ministers of this higher wisdom! Now a man
318   4,   6 |     evidently inspired of God. With this eloquence they spoke; no

320   4,   6 |    characters, and to guide us from this world of wickedness to the
321   4,   6 |   peculiarly their own, they so use this eloquence of ours that it

323   4,   7 |          himself though he ascribes this as folly to himself how

327   4,   7 |          cold and nakedness." After this comes in a period of three
328   4,   7 |           all the churches." And to this he adds two clauses in a
329   4,   7 |           and I burn not?" In fine, this whole passage, as if panting
330   4,   7 |         delightful it is when after this outburst he rests himself,
331   4,   7 |            descanting on matters of this kind. It was necessary,
332   4,   7 |           when brought to light. In this place, however, it is my
333   4,   7 |                         When, then, this rustic, or quondam rustic
334   4,   7 |           to deliver a message like this, and to men such as these,
335   4,   7 |          ears could wish changed in this speech? In the first place,
336   4,   7 |             he had so expressed it, this would have had its beauty:
337   4,   7 |      affliction of Joseph." Whether this be pronounced continuously
338   4,   7 |       indeed, I do not know whether this figure of speech, by which
339   4,   7 |         eloquence could be found in this passage which I have chosen
340   4,  10 |         when dealing with speech of this kind, says that there is
341   4,  10 |                                 And this must be insisted on as necessary
342   4,  10 |         does not understand; and on this account the speaker ought
343   4,  10 |            until some indication of this sort be given, the subject
344   4,  10 |          shall understand. And when this point has been reached,
345   4,  10 |            If it appear right to do this, it ought to be done so
346   4,  11 |            what was obscure; yet if this be done without grace of
347   4,  12 |       however, they do not yet know this, they must of course be
348   4,  12 |     strength of eloquence. Yet when this is needful, it ought to
349   4,  12 |      teaches or gives pleasure. For this reason also to persuade
350   4,  12 |            clearly pointed out (and this is the true function of
351   4,  12 |              the speech which shows this to be true gives pleasure. ~
352   4,  13 |           of pleasing. And yet even this is not enough for those
353   4,  14 |             rock in pieces." For to this God Himself has by the same
354   4,  14 |      listened to with pleasure. But this, of course, cannot be, unless
355   4,  14 |            truths. And something of this sort occurs in a letter
356   4,  14 |            inserted designedly with this view, that posterity might

360   4,  15 |         doubt that if he succeed in this object, and so far as he
361   4,  17 |        compliance. And when he does this with elegance and propriety,
362   4,  18 |         more things that pertain to this life? If, then, ye have
363   4,  18 |             of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge
364   4,  18 |             God forbid. No; but all this is done for the sake of
365   4,  18 |          that when a preacher takes this saying as his text, he should
366   4,  18 |          when we happen to speak on this subject to the people, and
367   4,  19 |            to understand? Are we in this case to seek out ornaments
368   4,  19 |         show how great a wickedness this is, and urge men to flee
369   4,  20 |        bondage, which is Hagar. For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in
370   4,  20 |          seed, which is Christ. And this I say, that the covenant,
371   4,  20 |              he himself anticipates this objection and asks, "Wherefore
372   4,  20 |    questions, but also, while doing this, to meet other questions

374   4,  20 |              And how gracefully all this is brought to a close in
375   4,  20 |         order of the words. And how this sounds in the Greek language,
376   4,  20 |         harmonious endings. Whether this be the fault of the translators,
377   4,  20 |            I confess I do not know. This I know, however, that if
378   4,  20 |           any one who is skilled in this species of harmony would

383   4,  21 |            sacrament of the cup. In this book he resolves the question,
384   4,  21 |         that in the book of Genesis this very circumstance in regard

387   4,  21 |          consumed the offering. Now this sign seems to indicate that
388   4,  21 |          and that rock was Christ;' this, of course, referring not
389   4,  21 |            and fire rose out of it, this was a sign that our Lord'
390   4,  21 |          heavenly." Virginity bears this image, integrity bears it,
391   4,  21 |          the first, in dealing with this topic, says: "Suppose a
392   4,  21 |   sufficiently clear, I think, that this eloquence calls passionately
393   4,  22 |            the sea. It follows from this, that the majestic style,
394   4,  23 |        distinction is required, and this naturally demands the subdued
395   4,  23 |      subdued style. And accordingly this style must be used in alternation
396   4,  24 |             the majestic style; for this effect is often produced
397   4,  24 |           the event proved it, that this horrible and barbarous custom (
398   4,  24 |           To break down hardness of this sort, speech needs to be

400   4,  25 |         attaining such an object as this last? They may desire it
401   4,  25 |              viz., the effecting by this style of eloquence what

403   4,  26 |   unassailable; especially when all this is accompanied by a natural,
404   4,  26 |          the nature of the subject: this style, so used, frequently
405   4,  26 |           hand, without perspicuity this style cannot give pleasure.
406   4,  26 | persuasiveness, are to be sought in this style also; beauty, of course,
407   4,  26 |             the majestic style (and this is always necessary when
408   4,  26 |             pleasure? Wherefore, in this style, too, when an obdurate
409   4,  27 |            just quoted about men of this stamp, made this observation: "
410   4,  27 |             men of this stamp, made this observation: "The scribes
411   4,  28 |           let the words govern him. This is what the apostle says: "
412   4,  28 |     subverting of the hearers." Now this does not mean that, when
413   4,  29 |          however, he cannot do even this, let his life be such as
414   4,  29 |           without deception. For in this way many become preachers
415   4,  29 |        speak good things?" And from this it would appear that even
416   4,  29 |           is not eloquent; and when this takes place, the former
