THEOLOGIE autem objectum est ipse Deus. - Habent aliæ omnes scientiæ sua ob.
jecta, nobilia certe, et digna in quibus humana mens considerandis tempus, otium,
et diligentiam adhibeat. Hæc una circa Ens entium et Causum causarum, circa
Principium naturæ, et gratiæ in natura existentis, naturæ adsistentis, et naturam
circumsistentis versatur. Dignissimum itaque hoc est Objectum et plenum
venerandæ Majestatis, præcellensque reliquis.
