But 3600 2, 55 | when it is the term of an ~act of justice, without taking 3601 2, 56 | real mean?~(11) Whether the act of justice is to render 3602 2, 56 | denotes a power, or also an act. Therefore justice is unfittingly 3603 2, 56 | the ~principle of a good act, a virtue must needs be 3604 2, 56 | defined by means of the ~good act bearing on the matter proper 3605 2, 56 | further on (A[2]).

And if anyone would reduce 3613 2, 56 | 1: Will here denotes the act, not the power: and it is ~ 3614 2, 56 | the ~part of the will's act which endures for ever, 3615 2, 56 | scarcely find a man willing to act unjustly in every case; 3616 2, 56 | imply perpetuity of the act of ~the will, it is not 3617 2, 56 | virtuous deed. And yet it is an act of ~justice. Therefore justice 3618 2, 56 | one "which renders a human act and man ~himself good" [* 3619 2, 56 | to justice.

Again the act of rendering his due to 3624 2, 56 | 1) defines justice by an act of the ~will, as may be 3625 2, 56 | that ~virtue directing its act to some higher end even 3626 2, 56 | the same even though its act be directed ~to a Divine 3627 2, 56 | seems that there can be no act of any virtue, that does 3628 2, 56 | strictly speaking directs its act to that ~virtue's proper 3629 2, 56 | Thes.

Therefore the act of justice does not consist 3633 2, 56 | what is his. Therefore ~the act of justice does not consist 3634 2, 56 | of things. Therefore the act of justice is not ~sufficiently 3635 2, 56 | proportion. Therefore the proper act of justice is nothing ~else 3636 2, 57 | same relation to its proper act, ~and the same applies to 3637 2, 57 | compared by means of its proper act ~which is called an injustice. 3638 2, 57 | reference to those who act unjustly: "Whatever they 3639 2, 58 | Whether judgment is an act of justice?~(2) Whether 3640 2, 58 | 1~Whether judgment is an act of justice?~Aquin.: SMT 3641 2, 58 | that judgment is not an act of justice.
