Note 144 — CONCERNING INTELLECT.

This last sentence of the proposition, is in the original: καὶ νοητὸν εϛὶ. τοῦτο, τὸ μέν, ὅ ἐϛι, τὸ δέ, ἀφ’ οὗ ἐϛίν. And this Portus renders with his usual unskilfulness: et est mente-perceptum. Hoc autem partim quidem, est illud, quod est, partim vero, est illud, a quo est. That is, “and it is intelligible. But this is partly that which it is, but partly is that from which it is.” The wrong pointing after εϛὶ, which instead of period should be a comma, and τοῦτο being erroneously printed for τούτῳ were the causes of Portus’ mistake: and this he would have rectified, had be understood the proposition.
