Latin
Quo plures res secundo et tertio cognitionis genere mens intelligit, eo minus ipsa ab affectibus qui mali sunt, patitur et mortem minus timet.
English (Elwes 1883)
In proportion as the mind understands more things by the second and third kind of knowledge, it is less subject to those emotions which are evil, and stands in less fear of death.
Modern English
The more things the mind understands by the second and third kinds of knowledge, the less it suffers from affects that are bad, and the less it fears death.
