Translation: "If someone should know the thing itself and by division of the concept resolve its associated ideas, no longer will it be supposed to be anything other than a process of nature. But if anyone fears a process of nature, he is a child. This however is not only a process of nature, but is also beneficial to nature. How does man have contact with god, and with what part of himself?"
