Thesis 2>67

Latin

Si ex concursu elementorum fiat mixtum, quocunque modo ponantur elementa manere immixto, fiet mixtum ex elementis ut ex materia digesta, a calido spirituali uaporoso eleuato ab eis.

English

If a mixture arises from the concurrence of the elements — whatever way the elements are held to remain unmixed within it — the mixture comes to be from the elements as from a digested matter, raised up from them by a spirit-like vaporous heat.

Sense checked; no further crux.
