be_v the_o correlative_n of_o merit_n we_o conclude_v that_o a_o man_n for_o do_v any_o good_a work_n while_o he_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n do_v merit_n yet_o we_o attribute_v not_o the_o

in_o itself_o if_o it_o be_v do_v while_o he_o be_v out_o of_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n such_o a_o work_n be_v not_o at_o all_o meritorious_a to_o he_o and_o consequent_o we_o hold_v that_o a_o penny_n give_v for_o god_n sake_n by_o he_o that_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n be_v more_o meritorious_a to_o he_o then_o if_o he_o or_o any_o body_n else_o shall_v bestow_v a_o thousand_o
