179. The unhappy descriptions of free-will, which I mentioned, Jansenius hath To. 3. li. 6. de Grat. Salvat. cap. 5. & 6. And Annatus de Incoacta Libertate confuteth them at large: As [Implicat contradictionem ut Voluntas seu Volitio non sit libera, sicut implicat ut Volendo non velimus. Latet Contradictio in eorum dictis qui dicunt Voluntatem, id est, Volitionem esse posse quae non sit libera. Apud Augustinum esse liberam, & esse aliquam hominis & Angeli Voluntatem seu Volitionem pro iisdem prorsus usurpantur. Voluntas seu Volitio, & libera Voluntas idem est, sicut & Velle & libere Velle: & Impossibile est ut Velle non sit liberum—] Lege etiam Annatum & Petavium Cont. Vincent. Lerinens.; & Pennoti propugnacul. haec plenius tractans.
180. The Liberty of the will consisteth not in such an Indifferency as 1leaveth it in aequilibrio equally inclined to this or that (As Macedo against Tho. White confesseth with others;) For then all Habits or Inclinations to this rather than that, destroyed Liberty: But in an Indetermination with a Power of self-determining: which power is called Indifferent, because it is a Power to this or that, and not because it is equally inclined, no nor equally a Power to either. For there may be inequality.
