Thesis 24.43

Latin

Ad sapiens, pulchrum, bonumque dominum_per intellectum, amorem, et fidem ascendimus.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 16606

OCR underscore in 'dominum_per' (farmer1998:16606) read as a word space; 'amo-rem' joined.

English

By way of intellect, love and faith we climb to the Lord who is wise, beautiful and good.

The Latin (farmer1998:16606) reads 'Ad sapiens, pulchrum, bonumque dominum', with the participle 'sapiens' in an unexpected form; rendered as three adjectives on 'dominum'. Farmer's note ties 24.43-44 to Theologia Platonica 4 and to the series starting at 2.12 (farmer1998:16679).
