Latin

Hinc sequitur I° nullam dari causam quæ Deum extrinsece vel intrinsece præter ipsius naturæ perfectionem incitet ad agendum.

English (Elwes 1883)

It follows: 1. That there can be no cause which, either extrinsically or intrinsically, besides the perfection of his own nature, moves God to act.

Modern English

First, it follows that no cause, external or internal, moves God to act, apart from the perfection of his own nature.
