Thesis 24.42

Latin

Facit opifex alias partes proportionaliter ad suarum formarum exemplaria sicut de primo est dictum; nec opportet explicare, quia quilibet sciens_ uiam analogizandi ex se poterit deducere.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 16601

OCR underscore in 'sciens_ uiam' (farmer1998:16601-16603) read as a word space; the hyphenated 'exempla-ria' joined.

English

The maker produces the remaining parts in proportion to the patterns of their own forms, as was said of the first; and it is not necessary to spell it out, because anyone who knows the way of reasoning by analogy will be able to work it out for himself.

'opportet' stands for 'oportet' in Farmer's Latin (farmer1998:16601-16603); 'sciens_' has an OCR underscore read as a space. 'exemplaria' is 'patterns'.
