SECT. XC. We must necessarily conclude that there is a First Being that created the Universe.
What must we infer from thence? The consequence flows of itself. “If so much wisdom and penetration,” says Minutius Felix, “are required to observe the wonderful order and design of the structure of the world, how much more were necessary to form it!” If men so much admire philosophers, because they discover a small part of the wisdom that made all things, they must be stark blind not to admire that wisdom itself.
