Thesis 2>72

Latin

Qui dubitat ex intelligibili et intellectu magis uere et substantialiter fieri unum quam ex materia et forma materiali, non est philosophus.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 20089

English

Whoever doubts that a more truly and substantially single thing comes to be from the intelligible and the intellect than from matter and material form is no philosopher.

Sense checked; no further crux.
