Latin

Qui dixerit personas in diuinis absolutis proprietatibus distingui, catholicae ueritati non repugnabit.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 12149; 1486 print folio <2v/3r>

English

One who holds that the divine Persons are distinguished by absolute properties does not thereby oppose Catholic truth.

'in divinis' is idiomatically 'in God' (Farmer's note, farmer1998:12214). Sense checked against farmer1998:12199.
