Thesis 5>8

Latin

Infra ambitum terminati entis recte quinque illa Platonis pro transcendentibus ponuntur: Ens, Idem, Alterum, Status, et Motus.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 22241

Apparatus (Farmer): 1486 ponuntur.Ens.Idem.Alterum.Status.&Motus.

1486 print punctuates the list with periods and an ampersand rather than commas (farmer1998:22249); no change of wording.

English

Within the bounds of determinate being, Plato's five so-called transcendentals are rightly posited: Being, Same, Other, Rest, and Motion.
