nothing_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v truth_n but_o god_n because_o nothing_o be_v or_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v of_o himself_o but_o god_n second_o as_o god_n be_v essential_o truth_n so_o he_o be_v

understanding_n that_o be_v when_o we_o speak_v or_o write_v as_o we_o think_v and_o therefore_o whensoever_o our_o word_n do_v any_o way_n swerve_v from_o our_o mind_n and_o understanding_n they_o can_v be_v true_a quia_fw-la mendacium_fw-la est_fw-la contra_fw-la mentem_fw-la ire_n because_o a_o lie_n be_v to_o go_v against_o our_o own_o mind_n or_o to_o say_v otherwise_o then_o we_o think_v

eternal_o conceive_v of_o they_o in_o the_o divine_a understanding_n truth_n how_o the_o divine_a understanding_n be_v the_o rule_n that_o measure_v all_o truth_n but_o when_o our_o word_n be_v agreeable_a to_o our_o mind_n our_o mind_n and_o understanding_n to_o the_o thing_n conceive_v and_o those_o thing_n to_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n then_o be_v they_o true_a because_o as_o the_o

the_o truth_n of_o our_o word_n and_o so_o you_o see_v truth_n to_o be_v primative_o in_o god_n as_o the_o light_n in_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o thence_o to_o be_v derive_v in_o res_fw-la
