Thesis 24.29

Latin

Sub tertio eiusdem ordinis est specialium diuisionum conuersio, animarum purgatio, sphera actiuorum et passiuorum, terra cum terrestribus, quae circa Tartarum, et pars occidentalis.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 16385

English

Beneath the third member of that same order lie the turning-back of specific divisions, the cleansing of souls, the sphere of agents and patients, the earth together with earthly things, whatever is around Tartarus, and the western part.

'specialium diuisionum conuersio' rendered literally; the sense of 'conuersio' as turning back is inferred from 24.24 (Pluto 'conuersiuus'). Sense checked against farmer1998:16439.

Translation: machine-drafted 2026-09-27 by TRANSLATOR-T03b-1; sense checked against farmer1998:16439; awaiting human check
