Since ~then 4657 Suppl, 72| the efficacy of its active virtue, is not as susceptible as ~ 4658 Suppl, 72| the more then since the ~virtue of the fire will be raised 4659 Suppl, 72| fire ~resulted from the virtue of the heavenly bodies, 4660 Suppl, 72| their nature have a kindling virtue: and this assembly ~will 4661 Suppl, 72| operation that proceeds from the virtue of a ~thing is an indication 4662 Suppl, 72| is an indication of that virtue, so is its virtue an indication 4663 Suppl, 72| of that virtue, so is its virtue an indication of ~its essence 4664 Suppl, 72| does not proceed from the virtue of the ~operator does not 4665 Suppl, 72| operator does not indicate its virtue. This appears in instruments: 4666 Suppl, 72| instrument shows forth the virtue of the mover rather ~than 4667 Suppl, 72| since it shows forth the virtue of the agent ~in so far 4668 Suppl, 72| does not show forth the virtue of the instrument, except 4669 Suppl, 72| instrument. In like manner a virtue that does not proceed from 4670 Suppl, 72| susceptibility. Thus the virtue whereby hot ~water can heat 4671 Suppl, 72| prevents water ~that has this virtue from being of the same species 4672 Suppl, 72| ascribed to ~instrumental virtue (Sent. iv, D, 1, qu. 1, 4673 Suppl, 72| hot water we see that by virtue of its species it returns 4674 Suppl, 72| to be ~changed from the virtue which they have now.

Hence it will be necessary 4682 Suppl, 77| will be necessary for the virtue of the soul's powers to ~ 4683 Suppl, 77| perfect ~participation of the virtue of the species, and if he 4684 Suppl, 78| limitation can only arise by virtue of the form, with which 4685 Suppl, 79| signs of the ~most steadfast virtue whereby the saints suffered 4686 Suppl, 79| yet not of the body but of virtue." ~Nevertheless those martyrs 4687 Suppl, 79| invested with a certain virtue of ~incorruption. Now the 4688 Suppl, 80| obstacle is its grossness by virtue of which it is able to occupy 4689 Suppl, 80| without severing them, not by virtue of its subtlety, but by 4690 Suppl, 80| Thes.

Therefore all supremacy 4697 Suppl, 86| account of a certain degree of virtue, ~attain to the eminence 4698 Suppl, 90| according to his proper virtue [Douay: ~'ability']." Now 4699 Suppl, 90| but only by the habit of virtue with ~which they are informed. 4700 Suppl, 90| are informed. Now every virtue obtains its meritorious ~ 4701 Suppl, 90| OBJ 1: In this passage "virtue" denotes not the natural 4702 Suppl, 90| 23], A[8]].

For 4709 Suppl, 93| correspond to none but the virtue of continence.~Aquin.: SMT 4710 Suppl, 93| corresponds ~especially to that virtue which more than any other 4711 Suppl, 93| continence rather than to another virtue.~Aquin.: SMT XP Q[96] A[ 4712 Suppl, 93| comes under the genus of virtue in so far as ~perpetual 4713 Suppl, 93| exceeding strength of her virtue, her flesh was so subdued ~ 4714 Suppl, 93| aureole: for they ~make a virtue of necessity. If, on the 4715 Suppl, 93| suffer death ~for any other virtue: and yet apparently this 4716 Suppl, 93| the faith, but any other virtue, not civic but infused, 4717 Suppl, 93| correspond to some act of ~virtue. But preaching or teaching 4718 Suppl, 93| teaching is not the act of a virtue. Therefore ~an aureole is 4719 Suppl, 93| competent to preach and teach by virtue of ~their office. but it 4720 Suppl, 93| and teaching are acts of a virtue, namely mercy, ~wherefore 4721 Suppl, 93| For it is not owing ~to a virtue that angels abstain altogether 4722 Suppl, 93| Further, a certain fulness of virtue will shine forth in the ~ 4723 Suppl, 93| yet not of the body but of virtue." Therefore it would seem ~ 4724 Suppl, 93| martyrs corresponds ~to their virtue of fortitude, the aureole 4725 Suppl, 93| aureole of virgins to the virtue of ~temperance, and the 4726 Suppl, 93| aureole of doctors to the virtue of prudence. ~Therefore 4727 Suppl, 93| aureole corresponding to ~the virtue of justice.~Aquin.: SMT 4728 Suppl, 95| acquired ~certain habits of virtue, for instance heathens who 4729 Suppl, 95| OBJ 3: The habits of civic virtue do not remain in the separated ~ 4730 Suppl, 95| Love that is not based on virtue is easily voided, ~especially 4731 Suppl, 95| punishment only.
