Claim

The essence of a genus and the essence of a species differ as signate from non-signate




Arguments

If it is true that...

Signate matter is not included in the definition of man as man, but signate matter would be included in the definition of Socrates if Socrates had a definition

and

The essence of man and the essence of Socrates do not differ except as the signate differs from the non-signate

Then it must be true that...

The essence of a genus and the essence of a species differ as signate from non-signate


Consequences

If it is true that...

The essence of a genus and the essence of a species differ as signate from non-signate

and

The genus signifies indeterminately the whole that is in the species and does not signify matter alone

Then it must be true that...

Similarly, the difference also signifies the whole and does not signify the form alone
