Thesis 2>35

Latin

Necessarium est tenere secundum Auenroem quod forma generis sit realiter alia a forma speciei, nec oppositum stat cum principiis doctrinae suae.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 19335

English

It is necessary to hold, following Averroes, that the form of the genus is really other than the form of the species; nor does the contrary stand with the principles of his teaching.

Sense checked; no further crux.
