 4 I, 6 |         and from the power of the devil, all which things are the
 5 I, 6 |       whose power is hell, or the devil? Or, whose is the kingdom

 7 I, 6 |       from heaven to vanquish the devil? These are the objections
 8 I, 7 |              CHAPTER VII.~How the devil had no justice on his side
 9 I, 7 |         to try a contest with the devil in justice, before he did
10 I, 7 |       strength, so that, when the devil should put to death that
11 I, 7 |           undue force against the devil, since the devil had a rightful
12 I, 7 |      against the devil, since the devil had a rightful ownership
13 I, 7 |         ownership of man, for the devil had not seized man with

15 I, 7 |        God. But since neither the devil nor man belong to any but
16 I, 7 |          way than by means of the devil, or of sparing him, what
17 I, 7 |   deserved to be tormented by the devil, yet the devil tormented
18 I, 7 |   tormented by the devil, yet the devil tormented him unjustly.
19 I, 7 |        nothing meritorious in the devil; on the other hand, he was
20 I, 7 |          those who think that the devil has any right in holding
21 I, 7 |          to the tormenting of the devil, and that God in justice
22 I, 7 |   therefore they suppose that the devil rightly inflicts it. For
23 I, 7 |          only unjust. So also the devil is said to torment men justly,
24 I, 7 |           by this decree that the devil, as if under the writing
25 I, 7 |        that writing is not of the devil, because it is called the
26 I, 7 |        writing of a decree of the devil, but of God. For by the
27 I, 7 |        justice on the part of the devil in his tormenting man. In
28 I, 7 |        therefore, as respects the devil, why God should not make
29 I, 7 |      bestow perseverance upon the devil.~Boso. You have proved that
30 I, 8 |          justify God, and put the devil to silence, if he were to
31 I, 8 |           justify God against the devil, and even against itself,
32 I, 8 |         above that from which the devil was fallen, as far as good
33 I, 8 |          a wicked man is called a devil, as our Lord says of Judas,
34 I, 9 |           angels, and allowed the devil, inflamed with envy, to

36 I, 9 |           restrain the devil, the devil could not have tempted man.
37 I, 2 |    himself to be conquered by the devil; for which be can make no
38 I, 2 |          God, between God and the devil, to conquer the devil by
39 I, 2 |         the devil, to conquer the devil by not yielding to his temptation,
40 I, 2 |          honor of God and put the devil to shame, because that man,
41 I, 2 |         sin though tempted by the devil, while the devil, though
42 I, 2 |           by the devil, while the devil, though stronger and in
43 I, 2 |           over to the will of the devil, contrary to the will and
44 I, 2 |     honored God by overcoming the devil, as he dishonored him in
45 I, 2 | dishonored him in yielding to the devil. Now the victory ought to
46 I, 2 |          he freely yielded to the devil to sin, and on this account
47 I, 2 |    himself, he should conquer the devil by the pain of death, while
48 I, 3 |     himself to be overcome by the devil?~Boso. Go on to mention,
49 I, 3 |         unless, by overcoming the devil, man restore to God what
50 I, 3 |    himself to be conquered by the devil; so that, as by this conquest
51 I, 3 |        this conquest over man the devil took what belonged to God,
52 I, 3 |           so in man's victory the devil may be despoiled, and God
53 II, 9|           he was to pray, and the devil, whom he was to vanquish,
54 II, 1|         if he was overcome by the devil in the easiest manner possible,
55 II, 1|       honor God by conquering the devil with the greatest possible
56 II, 0|        from heaven to conquer the devil, nor of contending against
57 II, 0|       that man should conquer the devil, so that he who had offended
58 II, 0|           God owed nothing to the devil but punishment, so man must
59 II, 0|          amends by conquering the devil as man had already been
60 II, 0|        owed to God and not to the devil.~ ~
