210. Question.
But if the figure be neither in the Subject nor in the Predicate, it is no where.
But if the figure be neither in the Subiecte nor in the Predicate, it is no where.
Answer. Thou gatherest not rightly. For thou omittest the third, that is to say, the copulative which knitteth the subject with the attribute. I say then that the figure is in the very kind of attribution, that is, that in very deed the true body and properly taken, is said also of the true bread properly taken, but figuratively, not properly. So if we say that Circumcision is the covenant: or the Sceptre is the kingdom, or that the Paschal Lamb was Christ, it must needs be that the figure be placed neither in the Subject nor in the Attribute: but in the Copulative or kind of attribution.
Answeare. Thou gatherest not rightly. For thou omittest the third, that is to say, the copulatyue which knitteth the subiect with the attribute. I say then that the figure is in the very kynde of attribution, that is, that in very deede the true bodie and properly taken, is sayde also of the true bread properly taken, but figuratiuely, not properly. So if wee say that Circumcision is the couenaunt: or the Scepter is the kingdome, or that the Paschall Lambe was Christe, it must needes be that the figure be placed neither in the Subiect nor in the Attribute: but in the Copulatiue or kinde of attribution.
