It is my 5 1 | CHAPTER I.~There is a being which is best, and greatest, and 6 1 | existence of one Nature which is highest of all existing 7 1 | of all existing beings, which is also sufficient to itself 8 1 | eternal blessedness, and which confers upon and effects 9 1 | knowledge of many other things, which we necessarily believe regarding 10 1 | ways, I shall adopt one which I consider easiest for such 11 1 | enjoy only those things which they suppose to be good, 12 1 | examination of that cause by which these things are good, which 13 1 | which these things are good, which he does not desire, except 14 1 | rationally to those truths of which, without reason, he has 15 1 | discussion, I use any argument which no greater authority adduces, 16 1 | some one thing, through which all goods whatever are good? 17 1 | by virtue of some fact, which is not understood to be 18 1 | the quality of justness, which is not one thing in one 19 1 | good by virtue of something which is conceived of as the same 20 1 | called good, and those things which promote safety --or for 21 1 | But, since the reasoning which we have observed is in no 22 1 | that same being through which all goods exist, whatever 23 1 | this very being, through which all goods exist, to be a 24 1 | another being than that which they themselves are, and 25 1 | alone is supremely good, which is alone good through itself. 26 1 | equalled nor excelled. But that which is supremely good is also 27 1 | therefore, some one being which is supremely good, and supremely 28 2 | through a single being, which is good through itself; 29 2 | something supremely great, which is great through itself. 30 2 | object is great, but that which, the greater it is, is the 31 3 | a certain Nature through which whatever is exists, and 32 3 | whatever is exists, and which exists through itself, and 33 3 | are more than one, through which all things that are exist. 34 3 | some one being, through which they exist, or they exist 35 3 | through that one being through which these exist.~If, however, 36 3 | self (existendi per se), by which they are able to exist each 37 3 | through this very power, which is one, and through which 38 3 | which is one, and through which they are able to exist, 39 3 | through this very being, which is one, than through these, 40 3 | one, than through these, which are more than one, which, 41 3 | which are more than one, which, without this one, cannot 42 3 | exist through a being on which it confers existence. For 43 3 | through the subjects to which they are referred.~Therefore, 44 3 | beings than one, through which all things exist, that being, 45 3 | exist, that being, through which all exist, must be one. 46 3 | less than that, through which all things are, and which 47 3 | which all things are, and which alone exists through itself. 48 3 | itself. Therefore, that which exists through itself exists 49 3 | is, then, some one being which alone exists in the greatest 50 3 | degree of all. But that which is greatest of all, and 51 3 | greatest of all, and through which exists whatever is good 52 4 | among them no degree, than which no higher can be found, 53 4 | necessarily some nature which is so superior to some nature 54 4 | none in comparison with which it is ranked as inferior.~ 55 4 | inferior.~Now, this. nature which is such, either is single, 56 4 | only through some cause which is one and the same, that 57 4 | that one cause, through which they are equally so great, 58 4 | If, however, that through which these natures are so great 59 4 | great is another than that which they are, then, certainly, 60 4 | are less than that through which they are so great. For, 61 4 | is less than that through which it is great. Therefore, 62 4 | such natures than one, than which nothing else shall be more 63 4 | that there is some nature which is one and single, and which 64 4 | which is one and single, and which is so superior to others 65 4 | inferior to none. But that which is such is the greatest 66 4 | there is a certain nature which is the highest of all existing 67 4 | us not long since, that which exists through itself, and 68 4 | through itself, and through which all other things exist, 69 4 | either conversely, that which is the highest exists through 70 4 | or Substance, or Essence, which is through itself good and 71 4 | what it is; and through which exists whatever is truly 72 4 | any existence at all; and which is the supreme good being, 73 5 | another sense than that in which it exists through, and from, 74 6 | separately, this supreme Nature, which exists through self; then 75 6 | self; then these beings which exist through another.~Since 76 6 | less than that through which it obtains existence.~But, 77 6 | to be inferred? For that which cannot have come into existence 78 6 | this Nature, then, without which no nature exists, is nothing, 79 6 | something, then that through which it exists must exist before 80 6 | something, that through which it exists was a great good, 81 6 | before that good, without which nothing is good; and it 82 6 | that this good, without which there is no good, is the 83 6 | good, is the supreme Nature which is under discussion. Therefore, 84 6 | preceded by any being, through which it derived existence from 85 6 | this subject in the way in which one says that the light 86 7 | that whole class of beings which exist through another derive 87 7 | conceived of without these forms which we see in actual objects, 88 7 | that highest of all beings, which exists through itself, and 89 7 | and the universe of beings which exist, not through themselves, 90 7 | supreme Being. Hence, that which has no existence at all 91 7 | another than that through which all things exist. But all 92 7 | in no wise good, through which the supreme good is subjected 93 7 | Hence, the supreme Being, which is itself the supreme good, 94 7 | good, is by no means good; which is a contradiction. There 95 7 | therefore, no lesser nature which derives existence in a material 96 7 | essence of those things which exist through another does 97 8 | from it. But how could that which had no existence, assist 98 8 | thus be something, that which was something in the highest 99 8 | Substance, that that from which they were created was nothing. 100 8 | nothing. Hence, if that from which they were created, which 101 8 | which they were created, which I supposed to be nothing, 102 8 | is one way, according to which we wish it to be understood, 103 8 | is another interpretation which is, indeed, capable of supposition, 104 8 | some existent being, from which something could be created. 105 8 | interpretation, according to which a thing is said to have 106 8 | nothing; that is, those things which before were nothing, are 107 9 | CHAPTER IX.~Those things which were created from nothing 108 9 | what sense those things which were created may be said 109 9 | thought is concerned, through which, and according to which, 110 9 | which, and according to which, they were created.~ ~ 111 10 | rerum), like the expression which an artisan forms in his 112 10 | BUT this model of things, which preceded their creation 113 10 | sensible signs, that is, signs which are perceptible to the bodily 114 10 | insensibly of these signs which, when outwardly used, are 115 10 | of his universal essence, which is a rational, mortal animal.~ 116 10 | that kind of expression, which I have put third and last, 117 10 | they are to the objects to which they correspond, and the 118 10 | exception of those objects, which we employ as their own names, 119 10 | similar to the object to which it is applied, or expresses 120 10 | it as does that likeness which is expressed by the vision 121 10 | object as that expression which consists of this sort of 122 11 | the whole created world, which it established according 123 11 | or of anything without which a work premeditated cannot 124 13 | of reasoning to that by which it has been gathered that 125 13 | but be that those things which have been created live through 126 13 | through another, and that by which they have been created lives 127 14 | find it is this same Being which is in all and through all, 128 14 | and through all, and from which, and through which, and 129 14 | from which, and through which, and in which, all exist.~ ~ 130 14 | and through which, and in which, all exist.~ ~ 131 15 | earnestly as I am able, which of all the statements that 132 15 | among the names or words by which we designate things created 133 15 | applied to the Substance which is the creator of all; yet, 134 15 | essential to that in regard to which it is relatively employed. 135 15 | beings, or greater than those which have been created by it; 136 15 | existed, in relation to which it is called supreme or 137 15 | not describe that Being which is altogether greater and 138 15 | be it, in the same way in which I understand to be true 139 15 | many relative expressions which are by no means included 140 15 | Nature is anything, than which what is not it is in any 141 15 | it alone is that, than which there is nothing better 142 15 | nothing better at all, and which is better than all things, 143 15 | better than all things, which are not what it is.~It is 144 15 | or any of those things which the bodily senses discern. 145 15 | there is something better, which is not what they themselves 146 15 | the rational mind, as to which no bodily sense can perceive 147 15 | be any of those things to which something, which they themselves 148 15 | things to which something, which they themselves are not, 149 15 | be any of those things to which everything, which is not 150 15 | things to which everything, which is not what they themselves 151 15 | Nature is, if it is manifest which of all things it is, and 152 15 | of all things it is, and which it is not?~ ~ 153 16 | what the supreme Nature, which is in question, is in itself, 154 16 | statement, that the Nature which is itself justness is just. 155 16 | as true of all attributes which are similarly predicated 156 16 | supreme Power, supreme Unity; which is nothing else than supremely 157 17 | many names? For, everything which is composite requires for 158 17 | subsistence the things of which it is compounded, and, indeed, 159 18 | as this so simple Nature which creates and animates all 160 18 | means is there one essence which exists from and through 161 18 | itself, and another through which, and from which, it exists. 162 18 | through which, and from which, it exists. But, whatever 163 18 | with that from or through which it begins to exist. Therefore, 164 18 | Therefore, that very Being, which is certainly the supreme 165 18 | it is not true eternity, which it has been irrefutably 166 18 | after truth shall be ended, which is a most contradictory 167 19 | is shown below. --Tr.], which precedes it, and yields 168 19 | yields its place to nothing, which follows it, whatever has 169 19 | nothing; and the supreme good, which has been sought and found 170 19 | it to nothing, that Being which through itself brought into 171 19 | as an entity in itself, which signifies not anything, 172 19 | taught me actually to fly -- which would be false; or in this 173 19 | anything has taught me to fly, which would be true.~The former 174 19 | interpretation, therefore, which is followed by the inconsistency 175 19 | the other interpretation, which unites in perfect consistency 176 19 | foregoing arguments, and which, from the force of their 177 20 | murmur of contradiction which compels me to inquire more 178 21 | every time, it has parts; which is false. It does not, therefore, 179 21 | composition and division of parts; which has been found to be in 180 21 | time, the investigation of which it has hitherto been possible 181 21 | inquiry regarding the times at which it can exist.~If, then, 182 21 | individual places, so that which exists as a whole, in one 183 21 | is so distinct from that which exists as a whole at the 184 21 | that place. And that of which there is no part that does 185 21 | that place.

Is it not impudently 199 22 | measures its duration --truth, which regards no greatness or 200 22 | doubt the supreme Substance, which is encompassed by no restraint 201 22 | present, with the past, which no longer is; nor does it 202 22 | it pass with the present, which is, for an instant; nor 203 22 | to come with the future, which is not yet.~For, by no means 204 22 | place or time -- the Being which, in no wise, includes its 205 22 | those places and times in which they are said to be, and ( 206 22 | this fleeting present, in which we live, nor has it existed, 207 22 | things finite and mutable, which it is not.~And yet, these 208 23 | terms of place to objects which are not places; as, when 209 24 | is, transient present in which we live; since its age, 210 24 | since its age, or eternity, which is nothing else than itself, 211 24 | not, therefore, the term which seems to mean all time more 212 24 | Substance, to signify eternity, which is never unlike itself, 213 24 | changing succession of times, which is ever in some sort unlike 214 24 | what else is true eternity, which is consistent with the nature 215 24 | belongs only to that substance which alone, as we have proved, 216 25 | the essence of a being, which may yet be conceived to 217 25 | BUT does not this Being, which has been shown to exist 218 25 | terms of those accidents which are in no wise inconsistent 219 25 | just as those accidents, which effect some change by their 220 25 | accidents, so those facts, which lack a like effect, are 221 26 | difference between that Being, which is through itself whatever 222 26 | itself whatever it is, and which creates every other being 223 26 | from nothing, and a being, which is made whatever it is through 224 26 | differ from these beings, which are not what it is. And, 225 27 | supreme Nature is included, which neither divides itself into 226 28 | considerations, that the Spirit which exists in so wonderfully 227 28 | unique; while other beings which seem to be comparable with 228 28 | now, by mutation, anything which it either was not at any 229 28 | Again, since all beings, which are other than this Spirit 230 28 | because, through that Spirit which alone exists absolutely, 231 29 | properties of the supreme Nature, which have occurred to me in following 232 29 | expression (locutio), through which all things were created.~ 233 29 | later than that through which it is created, and nothing 234 29 | intelligentia) of this Spirit, by which he conceives of (intelligit) 235 30 | regarding that question which I dismissed above as doubtful, 236 30 | but is one Word, through which all things were created.~ ~ 237 31 | all words of that sort by which we express any objects in 238 31 | images of the objects to which they correspond; and every 239 31 | closely imitates the object of which it is the likeness.~What, 240 31 | position regarding the Word by which all things are expressed, 241 31 | are expressed, and through which all were created? Will it 242 31 | with supreme immutability; which is false. But, if it is 243 31 | is not altogether true; which is absurd. But if it has 244 31 | exists; while in these things which, in comparison with that 245 31 | the Word of supreme Truth, which is also itself supreme Truth, 246 31 | all existing beings, that which is in some way alive is 247 31 | supreme Nature, than that which is not alive at all; and 248 31 | more excellent by nature which, through its natural essence, 249 31 | non-existence? But the attributes which, taken each by itself, reduce 250 31 | more like that substance which exists supremely and is 251 31 | that in the Word, through which all things were created, 252 32 | corresponding to those objects, of which it is not the likeness? 253 32 | likeness? Since every word by which an object is thus mentally 254 32 | would not exist at all, which is the supreme self-sufficient 255 32 | supreme Being itself, perhaps, which is the Word still be the 256 32 | then the supreme Wisdom, which is nothing else than this 257 32 | or conceive of nothing; which is most absurd.~What is 258 33 | concerning the Word, by which the Creator expresses all 259 33 | is suggested the word by which he, who creates all, expresses 260 33 | For this Word also, by which he expresses himself, must 261 33 | evidently true of the Word by which he expresses his creatures. 262 33 | existence of that word by which he expresses himself, what 263 33 | manifest that of the Word by which he expresses himself, and 264 33 | himself, and of the Word by which he expresses the created 265 33 | undoubtedly the word by which the supreme Wisdom expresses 266 33 | thinks of something else which it is not, and especially 267 33 | separate itself from its image, which image is its word.~Who, 268 33 | likeness.~But the Word by which the Creator expresses the 269 34 | Wisdom and supreme Reason, in which are all things that have 270 34 | created; just as a work which is made after one of the 271 34 | existence, the more like unto which those beings are in any 272 35 | knows in the same way in which he expresses or conceives 273 36 | knowledge, in the same degree in which they exist more truly anywhere 274 36 | itself, in the same degree in which the creative being exists 275 36 | expression and that knowledge, which is so much higher and truer 276 37 | supreme essence of that of which it is the Word. But there 277 37 | supreme Essence, except one, which is the only creator and 278 37 | beginning of all things which have been created. For this 279 38 | demanded by a peculiarity which, though most unusual in 280 38 | expressions with reference to which they are used, it cannot 281 38 | there any dual expression which indicates either their essence 282 38 | there is no dual expression which designates the peculiar 283 39 | him, as do those beings which have been created by him; 284 39 | is one and the same being which derives existence from one 285 39 | born of those things from which they derive existence, although 286 39 | likeness to those things of which they are said to be born, 287 40 | For, among other beings which we know bear the relations 288 42 | certain kinds of birds, among which the female is always larger 289 42 | attached to that parent with which, for the generation of offspring, 290 42 | cause is associated, and which no other precedes. It is, 291 43 | that they are two; yet that which the one and the other are 292 43 | yet so identical is that which both Father and Son are, 293 44 | a man's wisdom, through which man is wise, though he cannot 294 44 | should teach me his wisdom, which I formerly lacked, he might 295 46 | How some of these truths which are thus expounded may also 296 46 | YET, some of these truths, which may be thus expounded and 297 48 | to think of an object of which we have remembrance, this 298 48 | apprehended in the supreme Wisdom, which always thinks of itself, 299 48 | parent. If, then, the child which is born of the supreme Spirit 300 50 | and by his intelligence by which he conceives of anything, 301 52 | great a degree as that in which his essence exists, since 302 53 | Father and the Son are, which is the supreme Being. But, 303 54 | proceeds not from that in which Father and Son are more 304 54 | than one, but from that in which they are one. For, not from 305 54 | not from their relations, which are more than one, but from 306 54 | from their essence itself, which does not admit of plurality, 307 55 | mother, -- suppositions which apparently contradict all 308 55 | that there are two beings which, taken separately, bear 309 56 | is begotten of that from which it derives existence, as 310 56 | should be called begotten, which alone is Son and offspring. 311 57 | but one supreme Being, which alone was created by none, 312 57 | sends forth this, its love, which proceeds from it, not by 313 57 | were its own, some name which is common to Father and 314 60 | I think that this truth, which occurs to me as I reflect, 315 62 | likeness or image of the object which exists in the memory of 316 62 | memory of the thinker, or which is perhaps called to mind 317 63 | in them one and only one which expresses, and one which 318 63 | which expresses, and one which is expressed --for it is 319 63 | expressed --for it is one wisdom which expresses and one substance 320 63 | expresses and one substance which is expressed --it follows 321 64 | readily given to these truths which are declared to be such 322 64 | incomprehensible, so ineffable, as that which is above all things? Hence, 323 64 | Hence, if these truths, which have thus far been debated 324 64 | knows its creatures, of which we necessarily know so many; 325 64 | and expresses itself, of which nothing or scarcely anything 326 65 | made concerning it in words which are also applicable to other 327 65 | case is by no means that in which they are applied to other 328 65 | often we speak of things which we do not express with precision 329 65 | than that the conception of which my mind itself attempts 330 65 | to me that Being, through which all things were created 331 65 | expressing to me that Being which, through its unique elevation, 332 65 | inference regarding it, which can be reached by the instruction 333 66 | it is made through that which approaches it more nearly 334 66 | nearly the creature through which the investigation is made 335 66 | rational mind alone, through which the mind itself can most 336 67 | true image of that being which, through its memory and 337 68 | performance, of this image which is impressed on it through 338 68 | loving, the supreme good, for which end it recognises that it 339 69 | forever wills to do that for which it was created.~Hence, it 340 69 | diligently observes that end for which it exists, it at some time 341 70 | loves him perseveringly, to which although it neither existed 342 70 | be loved by him; all of which suppositions are inconsistent 343 70 | if the rational creature, which is useless to itself without 344 70 | natures.~For this same good, which demands such love toward 345 70 | wishes another to be loved; which it is impious to suppose.~ 346 71 | consequence, that the soul which despises the love of the 347 71 | employ itself to the end for which it was created. But reason 348 71 | soul despising that end for which it was created, dies so 349 72 | scorns that for the love of which it was created, it must 350 72 | are some rational souls which are to be judged as neither 351 73 | toward that good. ~BUT, which souls are unhesitatingly 352 73 | loving that for the love of which they were created, that 353 73 | enjoy it at some time, and which as so scorning it, that 354 73 | and on what ground those which it seems impossible to call 355 73 | Creator of that good for which it was created, we ought 356 75 | and those things without which that Being cannot be loved, 357 75 | that, through the faith which he professes, he strives 358 75 | he believes those things which are proper to this aim. 359 76 | the same supreme Being, in which alone every man ought to 360 76 | because it is the sole end which in every thought and act 361 77 | love. For, that the faith which is accompanied by sufficient 362 77 | shows that life, without which it could not operate, is 363 77 | the life of love without which it could not operate; and 364 77 | that life of love, with which it would not be idle.~Hence, 365 77 | because it has not the life which it ought always to have? 366 77 | have? As that faith, then, which operates through love is 367 77 | recognised as living, so that which is idle, through contempt, 368 77 | faith believes in that in which we ought to believe; while 369 77 | faith merely believes that which ought to be believed.~ ~ 370 78 | supposed, because all persons which are more than one so subsist 371 78 | some one of those terms which cannot be applied in a plural 372 78 | applied to individual beings, which especially subsist in plurality. 373 78 | that the supreme Being, which is subject to no accidents, 374 79 | only as of some substance which be believes to be above
