  1 pre  |         could, more hurriedly, and so more briefly, than I wished.
  2 pre  |         work, at its commencement; so that, into whosesoever hands
  3 I, 1 |           me more earnestly to it, so that in this way Boso may
  4 I, 2 |            discuss them by reason; so to my mind it appears a
  5 I, 2 |           prevenient grace of God, so that, even were I unable
  6 I, 2 |            it.~Boso. You ought not so much to fear this, because
  7 I, 2 |           other subjects which are so related to one another that
  8 I, 2 |     examined without the rest; and so the discussion of these
  9 I, 2 |          easy.~Boso. You can speak so briefly with regard to these
 10 I, 2 |        fair above the sons of men, so is it of a wisdom fair above
 11 I, 2 |     painted in an unseemly figure; so also it may fall out with
 12 I, 2 |        should undertake to exhibit so rich a theme in rough and
 13 I, 2 |          to talk better if he can, so you preclude none from writing
 14 I, 2 |        have often promised me, not so much to make plain what
 15 I, 2 |        further confidence, than as so appearing to me for the
 16 I, 2 |            still deeper grounds of so great a truth lie concealed.~
 17 I, 3 |            he has restored us from so great and deserved ills
 18 I, 3 |          ills in which we were, to so great and unmerited blessings
 19 I, 3 |         which we had forfeited; by so much the more has he shown
 20 I, 3 |           its origin from a woman, so ought the author of our
 21 I, 3 |            be born of a woman. And so also was it proper that
 22 I, 4 |          infidels, and merely like so many pictures.~Boso. These
 23 I, 4 |          to be beautiful, and like so many pictures; but, if they
 24 I, 4 |      substantial to paint it upon, so that his picture may remain.
 25 I, 4 |  proportions which you speak of as so many pictures of the real
 26 I, 4 |        make the body of the truth, so to speak, shine forth more
 27 I, 4 |       human race, that work of his so very precious, was wholly
 28 I, 5 |         that being? Now if this be so, he would in no wise be
 29 I, 6 |      purchasing your redemption by so many sufferings, and finally
 30 I, 6 |           reason, to suffer things so unbecoming? For these things
 31 I, 7 |         before he did in strength, so that, when the devil should
 32 I, 7 |           and that, if it were not so, God would have used undue
 33 I, 7 |         power of him who holds him so unrighteously, either for
 34 I, 7 |           and another only unjust. So also the devil is said to
 35 I, 7 |           to which he tempted man, so that in this way he seems
 36 I, 7 |       means think that it is to be so understood. For that writing
 37 I, 7 |         injustice in a good angel, so in an evil angel there can
 38 I, 8 |        High should stoop to things so lowly, that the Almighty
 39 I, 8 | constitution which he assumed. And so there remains no ground
 40 I, 8 |            be exalted.~Boso. Be it so; let nothing be referred
 41 I, 8 |        worthy of condemnation? And so the matter seems to return
 42 I, 8 |          has given me commandment, so I do." Again: "The cup which
 43 I, 9 |          holiness; for he held out so firmly in this obedience
 44 I, 9 |          gave him the commandment, so he did, and the cup which
 45 I, 9 |     deported himself as if it were so. For he was exalted after
 46 I, 9 |           let my death take place, so that the world may be reconciled
 47 I, 9 |          light to be extinguished. So the Father desired the death
 48 I, 9 |         way, except by man's doing so great a thing as that which
 49 I, 9 |          as much with the Son, who so earnestly desired the salvation
 50 I, 9 |       Father gave him commandment, so he did, and the cup which
 51 I, 0 |        himself, but of the Father; so also that will by which
 52 I, 0 |          for the accomplishment of so great good, he could not
 53 I, 0 |          imparting an inclination, so there is nothing improper
 54 I, 0 |       causes another to desire it; so, also, we say that he desires
 55 I, 0 |            the Son to endure death so piously and for so great
 56 I, 0 |           death so piously and for so great an object, though
 57 I, 0 |          that God allows him to be so treated, even if he were
 58 I, 0 |          in some other way, and if so, why he wished to do it
 59 I, 0 |          is a strange thing if God so delights in, or requires,
 60 I, 0 |           least unbecoming to God; so any reason, however small,
 61 I, 0 |          human nature.~Boso. It is so.~Anselm.. Let us suppose,
 62 I, 1 |         and this is sin. Moreover, so long as he does not restore
 63 I, 1 |          for the anguish incurred; so he who violates another'
 64 I, 1 |          what belonged to another. So then, every one who sins
 65 I, 2 |           man is regulated by law, so that, according to the requirements
 66 I, 2 |          God is subject to no law, so neither is injustice.~Boso.
 67 I, 2 |           answer. For since God is so free as to be subject to
 68 I, 2 |         judgment of no one, and is so merciful as that nothing
 69 I, 2 |   compassion is true; but we ought so to interpret these things
 70 I, 3 |        suffered than that by which so great an evil must be endured.~
 71 I, 3 |            he allows himself to be so defrauded of it as that
 72 I, 3 |          him.~Boso. I dare not say so.~Anselni. Therefore the
 73 I, 4 |      punished, God loses his honor so that he cannot recover it.
 74 I, 4 |          away what belongs to God, so God in punishing gets in
 75 I, 4 |           Therefore, since man was so made as to be able to attain
 76 I, 5 |        part of them, they are only so much nearer to the opposite
 77 I, 5 |          to the opposite part. And so, though man or evil angel
 78 I, 5 |           consequently impossible; so that satisfaction or punishment
 79 I, 6 |    reasonable and complete number, so that there would be an unfitness
 80 I, 6 |          angels who fell were made so as to be within that number;
 81 I, 6 |         not continue to exist, and so fell of necessity. But this
 82 I, 7 |          good sinned with the bad, so, had the unholy stood firm
 83 I, 8 |            were fallen angels. And so we shall say that men were
 84 I, 8 |          number. Since, if it were so, it seems to me that some,
 85 I, 8 |       formed an incomplete number, so that, if no angel fell,
 86 I, 8 |      understood as consisting, not so much in the number of beings,
 87 I, 8 |         the doom of another.~Boso. So it appears.~Anselm.. Think
 88 I, 8 |        perdition of another.~Boso. So it appears.~Anselm.. Since,
 89 I, 8 |         that every creature having so glorious and excellent a
 90 I, 8 |       always after its own manner, so that what the will effects
 91 I, 8 |         themselves be transferred, so to speak, to an immortal
 92 I, 8 | confirmation could not be deferred so long, the renewal of the
 93 I, 8 |           seems improper, since he so quickly accomplished it
 94 I, 8 |           their original holiness, so as not to have sinned though
 95 I, 8 |          with all their offspring, so as never more to sin; just
 96 I, 8 |        conquered by sin, they were so weakened as to be unable,
 97 I, 8 |        save from the sin of Adam), so had they not sinned, human
 98 I, 8 |           explain the Divine words so as to make them favor different
 99 I, 8 |          confessors or martyrs are so called; for he who declares
100 I, 8 |            God," viz., either that so great a people, that is,
101 I, 8 |           great a people, that is, so many men, will be taken
102 I, 9 | satisfaction, and always to remain so; should He restore him at
103 I, 9 |            And, moreover, you have so clearly shown that no man
104 I, 9 |        trespass, that, even were I so disposed, I could not doubt
105 I, 0 |          rest and pleasure, except so far as you think suffices
106 I, 0 |            salvation.~Boso. We did so.~Anselm.. Let us then proceed
107 I, 1 |         they can satisfy for a sin so small as one look contrary
108 I, 1 |         right; unless, indeed I am so situated as to make it necessary
109 I, 1 |            else that you should do so small a thing against the
110 I, 1 |          of God, I know of nothing so grievous, and of no loss
111 I, 1 |          to preserve his property, so that afterwards he is glad
112 I, 1 |            I said before.~Anselm.. So heinous is our sin whenever
113 I, 2 |    yielding to his temptation, and so to vindicate the honor of
114 I, 2 |     incurred the penalty of death; so, in his weakness and mortality,
115 I, 2 |           But this cannot be done, so long as from the deadly
116 I, 2 |         You have already presented so many obligations which we
117 I, 3 |            conquered by the devil; so that, as by this conquest
118 I, 3 |             and God was the loser, so in man's victory the devil
119 I, 3 |            which he took from him; so that, as by man God suffered
120 I, 3 |           in his heavenly kingdom; so, by man's victory, as many
121 I, 4 |          ditch before pointed out, so as to be utterly unable
122 I, 4 |           not to do.~Anselm.. Just so inexcusable is man, who
123 I, 4 |            fault disabled himself, so that he can neither escape
124 I, 4 |          there is nothing wanting, so it can belong to no one
125 I, 4 |        belong to no one who is not so pure as to have no injustice
126 I, 4 |           cannot deny that this is so.~Anselm.. But if you choose
127 I, 4 |         Boso. I could wish it were so.~Anselm.. But while man
128 I, 4 |            also is plain.~Anselm.. So long, then, as he does not
129 I, 4 |         many.~Boso. Surely this is so. But how, then, shall man
130 I, 5 |        thus far by your reasoning, so that I perceive that man
131 I, 5 |            begin at the beginning, so as to rest it upon a strong
132 I, 5 |          my skill, when you enjoin so great a work upon me. Yet
133 II, 1|          man was made holy by God, so as to be happy in the enjoyment
134 II, 2|         easily proved that man was so made as not to be necessarily
135 II, 3|           sinned.~Boso. It must be so.~Anselm.. Therefore, as
136 II, 3|         body to an immortal state, so when he shall be restored,
137 II, 3|          both in body and in soul; so, if he persevere in wickedness,
138 II, 4|         else he has made to no end so lofty a nature, capable
139 II, 4|         lofty a nature, capable of so great good. Now if it be
140 II, 5|            it. ~Boso. But if it be so, then God seems as it were
141 II, 5|         than on ours? But if it be so, what thanks do we owe him
142 II, 5|            time of giving it: just so is it when one undertakes,
143 II, 6|        universe besides God.~Boso. So it appears.~Anselm.. Moreover,
144 II, 6|           this satisfaction.~Boso. So it appears.~Anselm.. But
145 II, 7|          natures cannot alternate, so that the Divine should become
146 II, 7|            Divine; nor can they be so commingled as that a third
147 II, 7|          not God. Or, if they were so commingled that a third
148 II, 8|          propagated among all men, so none but themselves, or
149 II, 8|        support of any other being, so, after the fall, the same
150 II, 8|           had not Adam sinned, and so will not be completely restored;
151 II, 8|    selected on this account.~Boso. So far, it is well.~Anselm..
152 II, 8|  condemnation sprung from a woman, so the cure of sin and the
153 II, 8|          the blessed, because that so dire an evil arose from
154 II, 8|        proper that from woman also so great a blessing should
155 II, 9|            by which you lead me is so guarded by reason that I
156 II, 0|          him not?" Now had he done so, he would have been a liar,
157 II, 0|       another can drag or bind me. So we can say of Christ, that
158 II, 0|         Christ, that he could lie, so long as we understand, if
159 II, 0|      understand, if he chose to do so. And, since he could not
160 II, 0|        said that he could not lie. So in this way it is both true
161 II, 0|       could sin they refused to do so.~Anselm.. What say you with
162 II, 0|       angels and our first parents so as to be incapable of sin,
163 II, 0|           why he did not make them so.~Anselm.. Because it was
164 II, 1|      immortal in all respects. And so it is not enough to prove
165 II, 1|            or another causes this, so that he lays it down by
166 II, 1|            must it be found.~Boso. So it appears.~Anselm.. Therefore
167 II, 1|      belongs to God.~Boso. This is so.~Anselm.. Therefore must
168 II, 1|         not owe as a debtor.~Boso. So it seems from what has been
169 II, 1|       himself to God by obedience, so as, by steadily maintaining
170 II, 1|           easiest manner possible, so as to dishonor God by sinning
171 II, 2|      choice constitutes happiness, so there is no misery in choosing
172 II, 3|          How can he perform works, so many and so great, without
173 II, 3|         perform works, so many and so great, without the highest
174 II, 3|          comprehends what is good, so there can be no evil with
175 II, 3|           time to discover wisdom, so there will be no need, and
176 II, 3|   mortality, which he makes use of so widely, because for so great
177 II, 3|          of so widely, because for so great an object. But he
178 II, 4|            of you have shown to be so monstrous that, were there
179 II, 4|        evils which its destruction so far surpasses.~Anselm..
180 II, 4|          And do you not think that so great a good in itself so
181 II, 4|          so great a good in itself so lovely, can avail to pay
182 II, 4|     surpasses all the sins of men, so will also the suffering
183 II, 5|             Boso. This is properly so with regard to all sins
184 II, 5|            sin done ignorantly are so different that an evil which
185 II, 6|         should allow of a thing of so great magnitude to remain
186 II, 6|         was made he had not sinned so that he ought not to be
187 II, 6|           wisely, how wonderfully, so incomprehensible a work
188 II, 6|            man can wholly discover so great a mystery in this
189 II, 6|         who alone is blameless had so great favor with the king,
190 II, 6|           favor with the king, and so deep love for us, as to
191 II, 6|         because there could not be so many living at the time
192 II, 6|            for the use of man, was so unprofitable as to contain
193 II, 6|        every man was made in vain. So that we rest upon this as
194 II, 6|          palace of the king.~Boso. So we believe.~Anselm.. Moreover,
195 II, 6|         from himself.~Anselm.. Not so. But as the mother's purity,
196 II, 7|           the power to lie, he was so constituted by nature as
197 II, 7| maintaining the truth?~Boso. It is so.~Anselm.. In like manner,
198 II, 7|           could preserve his life, so as never to die, we must
199 II, 7|            he could not wish to do so for the purpose of escaping
200 II, 7|           avoid being what he was, so you can assert that he could
201 II, 7|          wishes cannot avoid being so, but takes place of necessity.
202 II, 7|         able to avoid death.~Boso. So I perceive.~Anselm.. Has
203 II, 7|          whose person he took were so united that the same being
204 II, 7|            the virgin?~Boso. It is so.~Anselm.. Therefore the
205 II, 7|       choice to die.~Boso. This is so; but whatever be the reason,
206 II, 7|     slowness and dullness require, so that, as you have begun
207 II, 8|           and what one that is not so.~Anselm.. We have already
208 II, 8|      before his choice or refusal, so neither do they interfere
209 II, 8|         operate variously by turn, so that the same thing is both
210 II, 8|          prevented from existence. So that whatever exists from
211 II, 8|           could be compelled to do so, yet we must not say that
212 II, 8|          the case. And, if this is so with regard to man, much
213 II, 8|         made pure by faith in him, so that he might be born of
214 II, 8|            pertains to everything, so that we say: Whatever has
215 II, 8|           will), that it should be so. For this he became man;
216 II, 8|            would not have existed. So then, no one took his life
217 II, 8|         his sin. And this debt was so great that, while none but
218 II, 8|         but God was able to do it; so that he who does it must
219 II, 8|         unity with his own person; so that he who in his own nature
220 II, 8|           of this man to have been so excellent and so glorious
221 II, 8|         have been so excellent and so glorious as to make ample
222 II, 9|          God?~Boso. It should seem so, but I cannot understand,
223 II, 9|           him but punishment, gave so precious a life, even the
224 II, 9|           a life, even the life of so illustrious a personage,
225 II, 9|            better for him, or that so doing he pleased God more
226 II, 9|          the alternative with him, so that, though one is better
227 II, 9|      absolutely enjoined upon man; so that both he who chooses
228 II, 9|          wishes to be ought to be. So our Lord Jesus, when he
229 II, 9|        possessed of his own right, so as to be complete in himself,
230 II, 0|            reward, who freely gave so great a gift to God.~Boso.
231 II, 0|           Anselm.. But if a reward so large and so deserved is
232 II, 0|           if a reward so large and so deserved is not given to
233 II, 0|          Boso. This is necessarily so.~Anselm.. Had the Son wished
234 II, 0|         than that, when he beholds so many of them weighed down
235 II, 0|            of them weighed down by so heavy a debt, and wasting
236 II, 0|          should conquer the devil, so that he who had offended
237 II, 0|          the devil but punishment, so man must only make amends
238 II, 1|           we have found it, I say, so great and so consistent
239 II, 1|            it, I say, so great and so consistent with his holiness,
240 II, 2|           s sin should be made up; so fallen angels cannot be
241 II, 2|         though of the same nature, so no angel ought to be saved
242 II, 2|           none to plot their fall, so they must rise with none
243 II, 3|        acknowledge him to be true, so no one can dissent from
