SECT. IV. GOD is Infinite.

AND we may add further, that these perfections which are in God, are in him after an eminent and infinite manner; for the nature of every thing is finite and limited, either for that the cause whence it proceeded hath communicated such a measure or degree of existence, and no more thereunto, or for that the same nature was not capable of any further perfection; Now there is no nature that doth communicate any thing of its own unto God, neither is he capable of ought that any other thing can impart; being (as before we said) altogether absolute, and necessary of himself.
