Thesis 2>4

Latin

Est deuenire in corporibus ad aliquid quod ita corporaliter locat quod corporaliter non locatur, et illud est ultima sphera, sicut in intelligibilibus est deuenire ad aliquid quod ita intelligibiliter locat, quod nullo modo locatur, et illud est deus.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 18877

English

Among bodies one arrives at something that so places bodily things that it is not itself placed bodily, and that is the outermost sphere; just as among intelligible things one arrives at something that so places intelligible things that it is not located in any way at all, and that is God.

Sense checked; no further crux.
