of the accidentality of the physical world with its attributis attributes?

Ans. And this case would be, in my estimation, roughly this:

“that namely the perfection of things is assumed as accidental and the worsening abstract power as necessary.”

Q. Do you not now clearly see how your complete demonstration now nullifies itself, and that the demonstration of the accident has its full basis?

Ans. Without a doubt, insofar as there were not a definite axioma axiom, opposed to this basis and perfectly grounded in the nature of things, that had an even far more fundamental basis, namely:

“that that which contains perfection, either absolutely or accidentally, would henceforth have to remain perfect or absolutely worsen of its own accord in the sequence.”

In the first case, however, the absolute power is again a contradiction, and in the second, it is superfluous. You see, therefore, that the physical things with their attributis attributes are not an accident, but necessary.
