[6150] Inveniri.
[6151] Porro.
[6152] Retro.
[6153] Itaque.
[6154] Conjecturam.
[6155] Tam…quam.
[6156] Scilicet.

[6166] Experimenta.
[6167] Libera: and so not a possible subject for the Lordship of God.
[6168] Matter having, by the hypothesis, been independent of God, and so incapable of giving Him any title to Lordship.
[6169] Fuit hoc utique. In Hermogenes’ own opinion, which is thus shown to have been contradictory to itself, and so absurd.
