Examples

  • Indeed if we look upon God as capable of injury, and suffering, and offence, from the contagion of any thing here below, as we are, then, indeed, there were some strength in this objection: but he is a blessed and pure Being: Mens segregata ab omni concretione mortali; "A mind free from all mortal composition or mixture."

    The Works of Dr. John Tillotson, Late Archbishop of Canterbury. Vol. 07. 1630-1694 1820

  • In like manner, Tully: Nec enim Deus ipse qui intelligitur a nobis alio modo intelligi potest, nisi mens quaedam soluta et libera; segregata ab omni concretione mortali; "We cannot conceive of God, but as of a pure mind, entirely free from all mortal composition or mixture."
