Note 307 — ON THE WILL IN NATURE. [190] (continued 3)
Karl Hillebrand translation
Roger Bacon already in the thirteenth century said: ... "Quod si ulterius aliqua anima maligna cogitat fertiter de infectione alterius atque ardenter desideret et certitudinaliter intendat, atque vehementer consideret se posse nocere, non est dubium quin natura obediet cogitationibus animæ." (See Rogeri Bacon, "Opus Majus," Londini, 1733, p. 252.)
