668. Nevertheless, the state of mind of souls and angels changes as they are perfected, so they are transferred to better positions in the same member or province, in fact even to different provinces that are nobler. For there is a continual purification, and as I may call it, new creation, nor can ever any angel arrive at perfection itself, to eternity. The Lord Alone is Perfect, or Perfection Itself.
668. But still the states of souls or of angels are changed and perfected; thus they are removed into better situations in the same member or province, and even into other provinces which are more noble. For there is continual purification, and as I may say, new creation, nor can any angel to eternity ever reach perfection itself. The Lord alone is Perfect, or Perfection Itself.
668. Sed usque mutantur animarum seu angelorum status, ac perticiuntur, ita in meliores sedes 1
ejusdem membri seu provinciae transponuntur, imo etiam in alias, quae nobiliores sunt; nam continua est purificatio, ac ut ita dicam, nova creatio, nec usquam aliquis angelus ad perfectionem ipsam venire potest, in aeternum, Dominus Solus est Perfectus, seu Ipsa Perfectio.
