The 900 Theses

Concerning the Trinity, it is more "intelligible" original: "intelligibile"; referring to the realm of pure being that can be understood by the mind than "intellectual" original: "intellectuale"; referring to the active faculty of the mind. Through the sub-celestial concavity, it is more intellectual than intelligible. Through the heavens, it is that which participates equally in both.

¶ Whatever things are stated affirmatively in the Phaedrus A dialogue by Plato concerning the soul and divine madness regarding the super-celestial place: they are spoken of not as the simply "First," but as having superior genera before them in which they participate. Whatever things are stated negatively: they are spoken of as they relate by analogy to the "First Good," which is the absolute head of all things, not determined by this or that specific order.

¶ Ambrosia The food of the gods is analogous to the "Limit," and nectar to the "Infinite."
¶ Just as perfect intellect must be sought from intelligible things, so must the upward-leading virtue be sought from intellectual things; absolute operation sequestered from matter from the ultra-mundane; the winged life from the mundane; the expression of divine things from the angelic choirs; and the true fulfillment of that breathing-forth which comes from the gods from the good demons original: "demonibus"; here meaning guiding spirits or lesser divine beings, not evil entities.
