Presentation and sensation then have already been
sufficiently discussed above. It is sensation that causes a
passion, which is called presentation, to arise in the soul, and from
presentation comes notion. Thereafter thought, weighing the truth
or falseness of the notion, determines what is true: and this
explains the Greek word for thought, διάνοια, which is
derived from διανοεῖν,
meaning to think and discriminate. That, however, which is
judged Cf. 1 Cor. i. 10. and determined
to be true, is spoken of as mind.
