Iscerpt. ex hespons. 30 Martii 169b. 1697
In is quae nuperde Conciliatione Libertatis humanae
et Electionis divinae transmiveram, hae ut video quaestiones
libi superesse censentur: quae sit causa ipsarum
idearum seu essentiarum; utrum in homine, an extra
hominem. Deinde an illa imperfectio originalis ab
ideis tantum objective dependeat, et in primo homine
Cum donis supernatur libus conjuncta fuerit. Ad
quae respondeo, talium rerum, quales sunt essentiae
quemadmodum et aeterna veritatum, non quaerendas
esse causas, sed rationes, per quas assentiarum quidem
possibilitas, veritatum autem necessitas ostendi
potest. que madmodum si quis quaerat de essentia
prorsut
numeri quadrati, et de veritate illa, qua discimus
differentias quadratorum esse numeros impares
ordine sumtos. Ideae autem nihil aliud sunt quam
essentiarum repraesentationes in intelligente, sive
homine, sive etiam alio quocunque. Cum autem
imperfectio seu limitatio quam dixi, sit de essentia
Creaturae, pro certo habendum puto non tantum cum
donis supernaturalibus Adami conjunctam fuisse,
sed etiam in Angelis et sanctis tn bono confirmatis
superesse; nec magis ab iis posse separan; nec
nec magis ab iis posse separari, quam incommensurabilitatem
lateris et diagoni a quadrato, quantum cunque ornari quadra
tum ponamus
