It is said that patience is the steadiness that serves as the driving force of reason and religion in opposing the impulses of desire and lust.

بَاعِثِ driving force

An active participle ('driving force') again, here the rival impulse, owned by the 'opposing' noun before it and itself heading an 'of' link with 'desire' next. So it sits in the middle of a chain: opposing-of-the-prompter-of-desire. It carries the genitive ending as the owned term.

بَاعِثُ الدِّينِ بِالإِضَافَةِ إِلَى بَاعِثِ الهَوَى لَهُ ثَلَاثَةُ أَحْوَالٍ

The motive of religion, together with the motive of desire, has three states.

بَاعِثِ motive

The same 'motive' noun as before, now in the genitive because the 'to' just in front of it governs it. It also heads a fresh possessive pairing with the next word, so it links to 'desire' to mean 'the motive of desire'.
