CHAPTER NINETEEN.On Gods blessedness.
Thus far was the integrity of Gods life, which stands as virtue: there follows that which stands as blessedness, and it is the act of Gods life by which He so enjoys His infinite perfection fully known through the intellect and supremely loved through His will that He wholly rests in it.
All who confess that God is, throughout the whole world, call God most blessed.Thing His blessedness consists, many doubt, reasoning about His blessedness from our satiated appetites.
Latin
CAPUT DECIMUM NONUM, De Dei beatitudine. Hactenus fuit integritas vitae Dei, quae se habet ut virtus: sequitur ea, quae est ut beatitas, et est actus vitae Dei, quo ille perfectione sua infinita per intellectum plene cognita et per voluntatem suam summe amata ita fruitur, ut in ea totus acquiescat. Omnes Deum dicimus beatissimum, quicunque Deum esse confitemur in toto terrarum orbe. Verum enimvero qua in re beatitudo illius consistat, dubitant multi e nostris appetitibus satiati de illius beatitate ratiocinantes.
