sequitur Positio haec: Legislator quoque Cimcilis ex
natura rei habeat potestatem efficiendi eadem ratine
ut matrimonia quaedam valida vel inscalida habean-
tur; ac proinde posse eum constituere impedimenta
matrimonii dirimentia aut constituta laxare.
Haec Positio est D. Thomae in 4. d. 34. 4. 1. art. 1. ad 4
cujus verba haec simt: Matrimonium autem in
quantum est officium naturae, statuitur lege naturae.

in menti tantum. Et notabile est D. Thomam non

tivam, quia eam comprehendit sub ciccili, aut sal-
tem ciuili potestati quodam modo obnoxiam esse
agnoscit. Sequitur hac nostra positio manifeste

ejus, quam habet in ejus facramenti materiam; scilicet
contractum ciuilem nuptialem; et vero contractus
cimilis nuptialis nonminus, uno multo multo magis
