the_o understander_n and_o be_v make_v something_o of_o it_o than_o the_o understanding_n begin_v to_o be_v will._n it_o be_v evident_a therefore_o that_o the_o will_n be_v of_o those_o intelligible_a thing_n the_o understanding_n whereof_o most_o of_o all_o perfect_v the_o understander_n 10._o wherefore_o the_o great_a nobility_n of_o intelligence_n be_v to_o excel_v according_a to_o will_n the_o

that_o as_o much_o as_o the_o will_n of_o one_o excel_v that_o of_o another_o so_o much_o too_o must_v both_o its_o understanding_n and_o power_n of_o act_v 11._o now_o that_o the_o multitude_n of_o intelligence_n be_v but_o finite_a it_o be_v evident_a from_o hence_o because_o all_o multitude_n since_o it_o rise_v and_o be_v increase_v from_o one_o by_o unity_n and_o unity_n can_v be_v a_o step_n from_o a_o finite_a to_o a_o infinity_n of_o necessity_n be_v finite_a 12._o but_o since_o they_o be_v not_o make_v for_o the_o good_a of_o another_o thing_n as_o their_o end_n nor_o have_v

there_o be_v no_o substance_n wherein_o it_o shall_v be_v subject_v it_o will_v neither_o subsist_v nor_o be_v in_o another_o wherefore_o of_o necessity_n some_o substance_n flow_v instantaneous_o from_o god_n 3._o it_o be_v manifest_a therefore_o that_o both_o the_o intelligence_n and_o the_o first_o body_n proceed_v from_o god_n by_o such_o action_n 4._o nor_o must_v it_o be_v ask_v by_o what_o extrinsecall_a power_n they_o receive_v birth_n from_o god_n for_o since_o god_n be_v essential_o be_v itself_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o whatever_o be_v require_v intrinsical_o for_o god_n to_o

again_o since_o a_o intelligence_n can_v neither_o act_v upon_o god_n because_o he_o be_v immutable_a nor_o upon_o another_o intelligence_n nor_o upon_o a_o separate_a soul_n which_o as_o to_o that_o

existence_n in_o a_o particular_a manner_n as_o if_o it_o be_v something_o of_o itself_o whence_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o intelligence_n by_o the_o act_n of_o its_o own_o be_v stand_v bend_v to_o the_o body_n upon_o which_o it_o be_v to_o act_v according_a to_o all_o the_o circumstance_n necessary_a out_o of_o its_o own_o knowledge_n to_o the_o effect_n 10._o on_o the_o other_o side_n
