of both kinds of predicates, and institutes such a combination: e.g., great goodness is lasting, great goodness is differing, ordered difference is concordant, ordered difference is good, etc. or in the magnitude of goodness there is duration. In the difference of order there is concordance, etc.

3. Furthermore, Lullius joins subjects to the predicates thus combined with each other through all the figures, e.g., God is good, great, eternal, etc. God is the God of order, of difference, etc. The goodness of God is great, etc. The goodness of the world is not eternal, etc.

4. Finally, by placing interrogatory signs on the subjects or predicates, he creates a new kind of combination, e.g., Whether God is, what God is, of what God is, etc. whether there is great goodness, what differing goodness is, etc. whether the world is eternal, etc.

5. These various combinations generate, as I have said, various concepts, various questions, various arguments for proving or disproving, and finally, a perfect knowledge of the proposed thing.
