ADMONITION

CONCERNING CONSTANCY

IN THIS FORM OF

Ramist exercises of

intellect.

Nothing is more noble for a human than reason and the original: "modus" (manner/measure)

of the mind, which is wise and in
agreement with itself.
The ultimate end is the final goal and the sum of all good things
of the dwellers of the earth,
and the powerful ruler of those in heaven:
Our mind touches this more closely. Man is the image of God,
and His exemplar. The Father himself said this:
What touches the highest is great, and the first creator does not rejoice in an
exile or degenerate image:
Therefore he possesses a good, insurmountable by any gems,
who carries an excellent mind in his breast.
Kingdoms, strength, and wealth fail the one who lacks reason.
A good is doubtful in form without an excellent intellect.
