2502   2, 5   |         rational is above the sensible nature, so the intellectual is
2503   2, 5   |                that have the sensitive nature only, ~cannot attain the
2504   2, 5   |                the end of the rational nature. Therefore neither can man, ~
2505   2, 5   |               man, ~who is of rational nature, attain the end of the intellectual
2506   2, 5   |                end of the intellectual nature, ~which is Happiness.~Aquin.:
2507   2, 5   |               Truth. But from his very nature, man considers truth in
2508   2, 5   |                 therefore, the angelic nature through which man cannot
2509   2, 5   |          midway ~between God and human nature; it seems that he cannot
2510   2, 5   |         rational exceeds the sensitive nature, otherwise than ~the intellectual
2511   2, 5   |        rational exceeds the ~sensitive nature in respect of the object
2512   2, 5   |                surpasses the rational ~nature, as to the mode of knowing
2513   2, 5   |           truth: for the ~intellectual nature grasps forthwith the truth
2514   2, 5   |               truth which the rational nature ~reaches by the inquiry
2515   2, 5   |              Consequently the rational nature can ~attain Happiness, which
2516   2, 5   |         perfection of the intellectual nature: but ~otherwise than the
2517   2, 5   |               time. But ~the sensitive nature can nowise attain this end.~
2518   2, 5   |                angels in the degree of nature so ~as to be above them
2519   2, 5   |             Good does not ~destroy the nature of Happiness, otherwise
2520   2, 5   |                comes, apparently, from nature; and nature does not fail ~
2521   2, 5   |           apparently, from nature; and nature does not fail ~altogether.
2522   2, 5   |          consideration of the specific nature of Happiness, viz. ~the
2523   2, 5   |              imperfection destroys the nature of true ~Happiness. Secondly,
2524   2, 5   |              does not destroy the true nature of ~Happiness; because,
2525   2, 5   |                  Q[3], A[2]), the true nature of Happiness is taken from
2526   2, 5   |              Since then man is, by his nature, changeable, it ~seems that
2527   2, 5   |          appears to be contrary to the nature of happiness, ~therefore
2528   2, 5   |            simply, but "as men," whose nature is subject to change.~Aquin.:
2529   2, 5   |               we consider the specific nature of ~Happiness. For it has
2530   2, 5   |               his natural ~powers. For nature does not fail in necessary
2531   2, 5   |                is not lacking to human nature. Therefore man can attain
2532   2, 5   |               s ~Essence surpasses the nature not only of man, but also

2536   2, 5   |              is subject to the laws of nature, ~from the very fact that

2538   2, 5   |               to be done that is above nature, it is done ~by God immediately;

2562   2, 6   |           because, to wit, there is in nature an ~inclination to receive
2563   2, 8   |            from a form existing in the nature of ~things: while the sensitive
2564   2, 8   |                which is not a being in nature, is considered as a ~being
2565   2, 9   |              in general, which has the nature of an end, is the object

2568   2, 9   |               also is the ~movement of nature. Now although it is possible

2573   2, 10  |                Metaph. v, 4) the word "nature" is used in a manifold sense.

2591   2, 10  |            which is not fitting to its nature; than for it to be moved
2592   2, 10  |              which ~is becoming to its nature.~Aquin.: SMT FS Q[10] A[

2594   2, 11  |               nature, which moves ~all nature by its command, just as
2595   2, 11  |                belongs to the rational nature alone. On the ~other hand,
2596   2, 11  |                belongs to the rational nature, in a perfect degree; to
2597   2, 11  |           things, which are not in the nature of the last end. Therefore

2600   2, 12  |               Art imitates nature. Now nature intends two purposes by ~
2601   2, 12  |              in ~things void of reason nature stands further apart from
2602   2, 12  |               apart from the rational ~nature, than does the sensitive
2603   2, 12  |                than does the sensitive nature in irrational animals. But
2604   2, 12  |                irrational animals. But nature ~intends the end even in
2605   2, 12  |               to intend ~the end, thus nature is said to intend an end,
2606   2, 13  |              according to the order of nature; whereas the will, although
2607   2, 13  |              according to the order of nature, ~is nevertheless indeterminate
2608   2, 13  |                seen in things moved by nature, just as in things moved
2609   2, 13  |            that all ~that share in one nature, invariably act in the same
2610   2, 14  |               our actions, such as the nature of various things. Therefore ~
2611   2, 15  |                proper to the rational ~nature, which has the command of

2614   2, 17  |              since it is due either to nature, or to some previous ~movement,
2615   2, 17  |            that which is ~according to nature stands first, whence all
2616   2, 17  |              principle is according to nature. Now the principle of ~bodily
2617   2, 17  |              the heart is according to nature, and not according to the ~
2618   2, 17  |              first parent was that his nature was left to itself, through
2619   2, 18  |              active powers always the ~nature of an effect, but only when
2620   2, 18  |              something is according to nature, and something against nature,
2621   2, 18  |          nature, and something against nature, diversify ~the natural
2622   2, 18  |          although an action's specific nature may not contain ~all that
2623   2, 18  |               above ~(A[5]). But since nature is determinate to one thing,
2624   2, 18  |           thing, nor can a process ~of nature go on to infinity, there
2625   2, 19  |              reason of the goodness of nature. ~Therefore it cannot give
2626   2, 19  |         according as it is in its ~own nature; but according as it is
2627   2, 19  |             creature, according to its nature, is of some particular good, ~
2628   2, 19  |                  proportionate to that nature. Now a thing may happen
2629   2, 19  |              inclination consequent to nature, or to the particular apprehension
2630   2, 20  |            precedes it in the order of nature: ~but inasmuch as it is
2631   2, 20  |                if they follow from the nature of the action and in the
2632   2, 20  |     specifically worse, if ~it is of a nature to produce worse results.
2633   2, 20  |            effect that flows ~from the nature of the cause, not by that
2634   2, 20  |             that flows from their very nature. Hence ~they redound to
2635   2, 20  |         punished, both follow from the nature of the cause, and are supposed
2636   2, 21  |               monsters are the sins of nature" (Phys. ii, 8). ~But monsters
2637   2, 21  |       engendered outside the order of ~nature. Now things that are produced
2638   2, 21  |              are produced according to nature (Phys. ii, 8). Therefore
2639   2, 21  |               in Phys. ii, 8 occurs in nature and art, ~when the end intended
2640   2, 21  |               when the end intended by nature or art is not attained.
2641   2, 21  |             Law. But this ~is the very nature of sin; for Augustine says (
2642   2, 21  |           things that act according to nature, this rule is the ~natural

2645   2, 21  |               end whatever; since when nature works it ~forms something.
2646   2, 21  |                even in ~things done by nature" (Phys. ii, 8). And yet
2647   2, 21  |            agent: ~since the action of nature is determinate. And, therefore,
2648   2, 22  |             worse, it has more ~of the nature of a passion, than when
2649   2, 22  |                it by reason of its own nature.~Aquin.: SMT FS Q[22] A[
2650   2, 22  |    Consequently it is evident that the nature of passion ~is consistent
2651   2, 23  |               is more ~than our animal nature can easily acquire or avoid;

2654   2, 23  |               view of their species or nature, as fire differs from ~water;
2655   2, 24  |               movement in ~accord with nature is an action, but movement
2656   2, 24  |               but movement contrary to nature is ~passion." But in movements
2657   2, 24  |              the soul, what is against nature is sinful ~and morally evil:
2658   2, 24  |                which is in accord with nature to that which is ~against
2659   2, 24  |              to that which is ~against nature." Therefore these passions
2660   2, 25  |                but to the intention of nature, ~which intends the end

2669   2, 29  |               by reason of its ~common nature, and not merely as an individual,
2670   2, 30  |               can arise ~from the very nature of the object, or from a

2674   2, 30  |         because ~it is suitable to the nature of the animal; for example,
