There is
then a knowledge of God indeed, but only for practical purposes,
and, if we attempt to extend it to a theoretical knowledge, we find an
understanding that has intuitions, not thoughts, a will that is
directed to objects on the existence of which its satisfaction does
not in the least depend (not to mention the transcendental predicates,
as, for example, a
magnitude
of existence, that is duration, which,
however, is not in time, the only possible means we have of conceiving
existence as magnitude).

Though full of arms and armed men it was,
Yet with small pains it ran, as it had flown:
Wondered

They praised the workmen and their skill unknown,
And on that day two towers they builded more,
Like that which sweet Clorinda burned before.
