Thesis 2>13

Latin

Sex transcendentia quae ponit communis doctrina a iunioribus latinis sunt efficta; ea et graeci peripatetici, et princeps eorum Aristoteles nescit.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 19083

The sheet's underscore in 'doctrina_a' is restored to a space.

English

The six transcendentals posited by the common teaching were fabricated by the more recent Latins; the Greek Peripatetics, and their prince Aristotle, know nothing of them.

Sense checked; no further crux.
