Statim atque Cittecas Atuos enpectatissimas accepi, scripsi ad notum
Cypographum Leodionsem, qui sane conditionem quam proporus non
recusabit, si sapit, et compendy sui satagit. itaque nunc respontum
ejus experte quod ubi accesero, confestim ad te perscribam. quod
ipsum tibi significandum interea duni ne nescires. ne pagna
vacet, addo dubitationem plulos ophicam ortam inter relegendum
Cttecas tuias olim ad me scriptes.
Juxta te nulla Entelechia destruitur, et omnii matenam primam
propriam et inseparabilem habet. materia vero omnui statim ab iato
mundi condita est, ergo et omnes Entelechins cum maleuca statim ab
initio concreates esse neusse fuent, quod de animabus humanis dici
nequit, imo nec de alys entelechis prultis quas efficacia benedictioni
divinae quarto pemum ant quinto die crcationis productur esse conten
dis contra in dissertatione contru sturmuun. Nec dici posse videtur quod
materia primaprius condita postmocum suo tempore unimam humanam, ant ente
lechiam hujuimodi ab intio non crentam accipiat, nam mteriaante
quam unima humana crearetr matoria ejus propria possea futuua, extabat
utique, et habebat aliquam Entelechiam, num sine principuo unitatus eresere
non poterat. vel ergo posiquam anima crerte fint, mabeca prima rehnet.
priorem vel non. si non retinet, prior destuitur; si retinet cum eadem
materia puima habebit duas enteluhius sibi ad aequatas, adeoque erit.
anie hunere propeci et non ert prosccca. etc

Admodum Reverende peter, F autor Honoratissune
Multum libi deboeo, quod rerum mearum satagis, et cum Typographo
sane subtiles
Lepdiensi agere voluissi.
quod duburationes luas attinet, eo qu
arbitror Entelechias non naturaliter orin non posse, atque adeo aut initio rerum fuisse
creatas aut qse creari. Porro Entelechia nova creari potest, et si nulla nova
ubiqs
pars Massae crectur, nam si cun quia etsi malla jam habeat sun unitates necessatas
tamen nova cipit;pluribus aliis dominantem. Ut si fingas deum ex massa
on ex saxo rudi
Gemperes
 quoad totum non erganica facere corpus organicum, eique suam Ente
Animam praefictre: Tot nempe Entelechiae sunt quot corpora organica
Caeterum materia prima proria id est potentia passiva primitiva ipsi Entele-
e
propria
riae concreatur quae massam non magis auget quam punctum temeam
ab activa inseperrabilis, ipsi Entelechiae concreatur. Ea autem
partibilis non ea(quam emplet, ut Monada seu substantiam completam
constituat) concreatur. Ea vero massam id est phaenomenone ex
nonadibus resuttans non auget, non magis quam linem puuctum incaqu
pare
utte dignass.
