the following may save you some keying ... (max width combined with auto
fit with)
\defineframed[schemabox][align=flushleft,width=.25\textwidth,offset=none,frame=on,autowidth=force]
\tfx
{\tfa I. SCHEMA}\par
\schema % top level schema
{
\schemabox{Subjectum theologi\ae{} est Notitia Dei.\ Considerat
ergo,
Dei, vel}
}
{13ex}
{
\blank[big]
\schema % first nested schema
{
\schemabox[width=3cm]{{\sc Essentiam}, in}
}
{5ex}
{
\schemabox{Unitate natur\ae{}.\\Trinitate
personarum.\\Operibus ad
intra.}
}
(you can turn the frame off and hav ethe added benefits of framed like
color and background and such)
