connectitur in ratione motoris aut directoris: habetq in se intrinsece aliquid,
per quod a deo est permanenter destinatus ad talem determinate corporis
vel corporum curam et regimen. et post paura: Sieut amimae retionales
referantur singula ad singula corpora tanquam eorum formae; ita finguli

tanquam motores aut ciriteres coum. Tricusque Espassa. Ubi vides ipsum
Angelis tribuere officium Entelechiae analoquin. Et hanc dochinam tradit hoc
