adimamus? Quomodo autem in potestate nostra est videre, si velimus, cum etiam, salva integritate naturae corporis oculorumque nostrorum, nec volentes videre possimus, sive per noctem luminibus quae forinsecus adhibentur ademptis, sive nos quisquam in tenebroso loco aliquo includat? Item si quod audire possumus vel non possumus, in nostra potestate non est, sed in naturae constrictione; quod vero audimus vel non audimus, hoc est propriae voluntatis: cur non attendit, quanta audiamus inviti, quae penetrant in sensum nostrum etiam auribus obturatis, sicuti est de proximo serrae stridor, vel grunnitus suis?

(b) Visum est,' inquit, 'mihi. Potest non soli visum esse, quod visum sibi esse declarat. Non enim voluntate tantum humana visum est, sed sicut placuit ei qui in me, inquit, loquitur Christus, qui ut id quod bonum est, nobis quoque bonum videri possit, operatur. Quem enim miseratur, et vocat. Et ideo qui Christum sequitur potest interrogatus, cur esse voluerit Christianus, respondere, Visum est mihi. Quod cum dicit, non negat Deo visum; a Deo enim praeparatur voluntas hominum: ut enim Deus honorificetur a sancto, Dei gratia est.' Ecce quid iste sapiat, si verbis Ambrosii delectatur, quod a Deo praeparatur voluntas hominum; et nulla, vel non magna quaestio est, quis vel quando perficiatur, dum tamen sine gratia Christi idipsum fieri posse minime dubitetur. Deinde quantum erat, ut attenderet iste unum versum de Ambrosii verbis quae possit. Cum enim ille dixisset, 'Nam cum Ecclesia ex gentibus, hoc est, ex peccatoribus congregata sit, quomodo ex maculatis immaculata potest esse, nisi primo per Christi gratiam, quod abluta delicto sit; deinde, quod per qualitatem non peccandi abstineat a delictis ?' ille addidit, quod iste apparet cur addere noluerit: ait namque ille, Nec ab initio immaculata; humanae enim hoc impossibile naturae: sed per Dei gratiam et qualitatem sit, quia jam non peccat, fit ut immaculata videatur.'

(c) Ideo dicit, Ubi est ergo gloriatio tua? Exclusa est. Per quam legem? factorum? Non, sed per legem fidei. Sive gloriationem dixerit laudabilem, quae in Domino est, eamque exclusam, id est, non ut abscederet pulsam, sed ut emineret expressam. Unde et exclusores dicuntur quidam artifices argentarii. Hinc est et illud in Psalmis, Ut excludantur ii qui probati sunt argento: hoc est, ut emineant qui probati sunt eloquio Domini. Nam et alibi dicitur: Eloquia Domini eloquia casta, argentum igne examinatum. Sive gloriationem vitiosam de superbia venientem commemorare voluerit, eorum scilicet, qui cum sibi juste videntur vivere, ita gloriantur, quasi non acceperint: eamque non per legem factorum, sed per legem fidei dicit exclusam, id est, ejectam et abjectam; quia per legem fidei quisque cognoscit, si quid bene vivit, Dei gratia se habere, et ut perficiatur in dilectione justitiae non se aliunde consecuturum.
