Thesis LV. Although delight properly consists in that third act, he observes that a certain delight is present even in the earlier acts of simple love and desire. Since every love tends by way of desire toward delight, as to its rest and centre, the movement itself cannot fail to share something of that sweetness. As soon as a movement begins it has a share in rest, inasmuch as even the first moment of a movement has its own partial end.
Latin
LV. Quanquam vero delectatio in tertio illo actu proprie consistat, nihilominus observat in prioribus actibus simplicis amoris & desiderii, inesse quandam delectationem: quia cum omnis amor ad delectationem, tanquam ad quietem ac centrum suum, per desiderium tendat, fieri non potest quin ipse motus quoque aliquid ex illa suavitate participet. Nam simul atque motus incipit, participat de quiete, quatenus etiam primum momentum motus habet partialem terminum suum.
