Eminent containment: Sun and heat; angels and senses
Eminent: hold something better that can do all the lesser does — without its flaw.
Peripatetic Sun: not formally hot, but produces heat.
Angels: no sense-nature, yet sense-knowledge more nobly by intellect.
Latin
X. Eminenter autem & virtute habere perfectionem aliquam, est in se habere aliquid perfectius, & quod continet totam vim perfectionis illius quae eminenter haberi dicitur: idque, vel quia potest perfectionem illam producere; vel quia absque illa potest praestare quicquid illa praestat, seclusa omni imperfectione. Ita juxta mentem Peripateticorum Sol formaliter calorem non habet, & proprie calidus non est: sed tamen calorem habet virtute seu eminenter, quia calorem producere potest, & praestare quicquid praestat ignis qui calorem habet. Sic visus & auditus in angelis formaliter non est, nec enim habent naturam sensitivam, attamen sensus illos habent virtute & eminenter, quia cognitionem quam habet homo, sensibus illis mediantibus nobiliori modo per intellectum suum habent.
