3906   2, 182 |              is said to consist in a thing in two ways: in one way,
3907   2, 182 |         nature is determinate to one thing. In like manner by ~inward

3912   2, 183 |             and to be with Christ, a thing by far better. But to ~abide
3913   2, 183 |             any obligation the chief thing to be considered is the ~
3914   2, 184 |           Para. 1/4~I answer that, A thing pertains to perfection in
3915   2, 184 |             perfection. Secondly, a ~thing belongs to perfection consequently:
3916   2, 184 |              of charity. ~Thirdly, a thing belongs to perfection instrumentally
3917   2, 184 |          great wealth? For it is one thing not to wish to lay hold
3918   2, 184 |      according to the quantity ~of a thing. Consequently whatever may

3923   2, 184 |              and the more closely ~a thing is connected with the end,
3924   2, 184 |              above (A[1], ad 1,2), a thing is contained in ~the rule

3926   2, 185 |           Para. 1/3~I answer that, A thing is declared to be unlawful

3937   2, 186 |              the ~sake of the end, a thing is better, not for being
3938   2, 186 | self-sufficing by itself. Now such a thing is one "that lacks nothing," ~
