sacer est , aeternus , immensus , totus in toto , immo vero ipse totum , infinitus ac finito similis , omnium rerum certus et similis incerto , extra intra cuncta conplexus in se , idemque rerum naturae opus et rerum ipsa natura .
It
is
sacred
,
eternal
,
and
without
bounds
,
all
in
all
;
indeed
including
everything
in
itself
;
finite
,
yet
like
what
is
infinite
;
the
most
certain
of
all
things
,
yet
like
what
is
uncertain
,
externally
and
internally
embracing
all
things
in
itself
;
it
is
the
work
of
nature
,
and
itself
constitutes
nature
.
