 1 Pre|          For I believe that one will be much helped in understanding
 2 Pre|         first seen this preface will not pronounce a rash judgment,
 3 4  |        be perceives, whether he will or no, that not all are
 4 4  |    others through it; or, there will be more than one supreme
 5 8  |          since what was nothing will thus be something, that
 6 8  | something in the highest degree will be nothing. For, from the
 7 15 |      and see to what end reason will lead this investigation.~
 8 17 |     Nature is so many goods, it will therefore be compounded
 9 18 |   beginning at all. But neither will it have an end. For, if
10 18 |    incorruptible. Therefore, it will not have an end.~Furthermore,
11 18 |        it is to have an end, it will perish either willingly
12 18 |        willingly or against its will. But certainly that is not
13 18 |          unmixed good, at whose will the supreme good perishes.
14 18 |     certainly the supreme good, will not die of its own will.
15 18 |         will not die of its own will. If, however, it is to perish
16 18 |        is to perish against its will, it is not supremely powerful,
17 18 |     all-powerful. Therefore, it will not die against its will.
18 18 |        will not die against its will. Hence, if neither with
19 18 |    neither with nor against its will the supreme Nature is to
20 18 |       to have an end, in no way will it have an end.~Again, if
21 18 |      after it shall be ended it will be true that truth will
22 18 |         will be true that truth will not exist. Yet, anything
23 18 |        truth existed, and truth will exist after truth shall
24 19 |       nothing existed before or will exist after this Being. ~
25 19 |   before the supreme Being, nor will anything exist after it.
26 19 |     existed before, and nothing will exist after, it. For, either
27 19 |         existed, and that there will be after it a time when
28 19 |    after it a time when nothing will exist." Therefore, when
29 19 |         shall exist, that Being will not exist. How is it, then,
30 19 |    nothing or how is it that it will not come to nothing? --
31 19 |         Being, and that nothing will not exist after it, rather
32 19 |      the statement that nothing will exist after that Being.~
33 19 |         nor nothing preceded or will follow the supreme Being,
34 19 |       nothing existed before or will exist after it. Yet, the
35 20 |      that it neither began, nor will cease to be, it follows
36 20 |    always has been, and is, and will be; yet, I perceive a certain
37 20 |       nothing exists. Whence it will follow, that there is some
38 21 |     said that it was and is and will be. Its age, then, which
39 21 |        The supreme Being, then, will be divided into parts, according
40 21 |         But was means past, and will be future. Therefore that
41 21 |       that Being never was, nor will be. Hence, it does not exist
42 21 |       everywhere and always, it will exist either finitely in
43 22 |         nor has it existed, nor will it exist, in terms of past
44 25 |         immutable, if it can, I will not say, be, but, be conceived
45 28 |        by diligent attention it will be seen that that Spirit
46 28 |      alteration, that it was or will be, but simply that it is;
47 28 |         was not at any time, or will not be in the future. Nor
48 28 |       to be now what it was, or will be, at any time; but, whatever
49 28 |      have at some time been, or will be, by mutation, what they
50 28 |      are what they were not, or will not be, at some time; and,
51 31 |         which all were created? Will it be, or will it not be,
52 31 |         created? Will it be, or will it not be, the likeness
53 31 |       nothing of this ambiguity will remain if -- as the reality
54 31 |      also itself supreme Truth, will experience neither gain
55 31 |         the necessary inference will rather be, that every created
56 32 |       not been, and is not, and will not be, then can be no word
57 41 |         truly begotten. ~BUT it will be impossible to establish
58 44 |     existence of Father and Son will not be the same, nor will
59 44 |       will not be the same, nor will the Son be equal to the
60 57 |      the Father and the Son: it will be useful to this effect
61 62 |       the following observation will prove inconsistent with
62 68 |       ought to prevail with the will? For, to the rational nature
63 68 |    devote its whole ability and will to remembering, and conceiving
64 70 |         of that blessedness, it will be impossible to turn the
65 70 |       need of that blessedness, will it be able not to love it;
66 70 |        able not to love it; nor will that blessedness desert
67 70 |     separate them against their will. Hence, the soul that has
68 70 |       enjoy supreme Blessedness will be eternally blessed.~ ~
69 71 |        that despises this being will be eternally miserable. ~
70 71 |        love of the supreme good will incur eternal misery. It
71 71 |   nothing at all, its condition will be the same when in the
72 71 |      the supremely wise Justice will not distinguish between
73 74 |        for. ~BUT the human soul will by no means be able to train
74 75 |  striving for (tendendo in) it, will not remain without, but
75 77 |    truth is believed, the faith will be useless and, as it were,
76 78 |      any why they are three, he will say that they are Father
