Demonstration — Part I

Latin

Quicquid existit, Dei naturam sive essentiam certo et determinato modo exprimit (per corollarium propositionis 25) hoc est (per propositionem 34) quicquid existit, Dei potentiam quæ omnium rerum causa est, certo et determinato modo exprimit adeoque (per propositionem 16) ex eo aliquis effectus sequi debet. Q.E.D.

English (Elwes 1883)

Whatsoever exists expresses God's nature or essence in a given conditioned manner (by Prop. xxv., Coroll.); that is, (by Prop. xxxiv.), whatsoever exists, expresses in a given conditioned manner God's power, which is the cause of all things, therefore an effect must (by Prop. xvi.) necessarily follow. Q.E.D.

Modern English

Whatever exists expresses God's nature or essence in a fixed and determinate manner (E1P25C), that is (E1P34), whatever exists expresses God's power, which is the cause of all things, in a fixed and determinate manner, and so some effect must follow from it (E1P16). Q.E.D.
