Latin
Quo imago aliqua ad plures res refertur, eo frequentior est seu sæpius viget et mentem magis occupat.
English (Elwes 1883)
In proportion as a mental image is referred to more objects, so is it more frequent, or more often vivid, and occupies the mind more.
Modern English
The more an image is referred to many things, the more frequent it is, that is, the more often it is vivid, and the more it occupies the mind.
