Recte accepi Tuas sane gratissimas
cum responsis amici ad quaesita de eo quod
interest, quo nomine plurimum gratias ago
prodist nuper in Batavis liber inscriptus

inprimis e discrimen definitionum Nominalium
realium quod in eo consistit, ut ex definitione
reali agnoscere possimus, utrum res sit possibilis
nec ne; huic ille jam dundamento meditationes
suas magnam partem recte inaedificat. Cartestus autem
Contra tanc observationem peccaverat in sua post Anselmum
proposita demonstratione Existentiae Dei, ex eo quod Deus
est Ens perfectissimum. atue ita omnes perfectiones
adeoque et existentiam involvat. quae demonstratu
hoc saltem mobat Deum necessario existere
modo sit possibilis, neque enim ex de finifinibus aliquio
conclndi tuto potest, nisi constet eas esse reales un sive

libro annotat Tschirnhusius licet nonnunquam de aliorum
sententiis suisque pronuntiet paulo liberalius, et in
quibus dam geometricis in paralogismos inciderit,
prointiore quam par est, asseveratione de rebus
