Est causa.

We heard before that causa was cujus vi res est, now forma therefore gives vim esseficandi, it agrees with the matter in that their two essences constitute the effect; then again by how much the form yeelds his esse in a more special manner, then the matter, so much more the form is causa, the matter yeelds a por∣tion of it self, but all the form is there, for the matter is common to both species, ergo must give matter to them both, ergo forma is a more inward cause than the matter: again, forma is principium actus, and therefore it is called actus, ergo est causa.
