Thesis 21.3

Latin

Ad complementum praecedentis conclusionis, quam non solum Adelandus, sed omnes Mauri dicunt, dico ego illas species actu et substantialiter esse in parte quae non cadit, et recipi de nouo et accidentaliter in parte quae cadit.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 15287

English

By way of completing the preceding conclusion, which Adelandus and indeed all the Moors affirm, I maintain that those species exist in act and in substance in the part that does not fall, and are taken up afresh, as accidents, in the part that does fall.
