which_o thing_n neither_o can_v be_v corrupt_v if_o they_o be_v the_o supreme_a good_a nor_o again_o can_v be_v corrupt_v unless_o they_o be_v good_a for_o *_o if_o they_o be_v the_o supreme_a good_a

all_o good_a absolute_o cease_v to_o be_v it_o follow_v then_o as_o long_o as_o they_o be_v that_o they_o be_v good_a and_o therefore_o whatever_o thing_n be_v be_v good_a and_o consequent_o that_o

that_o there_o be_v no_o substance_n at_o all_o which_o thou_o make_v not_o and_o because_o thou_o have_v not_o make_v all_o thing_n equal_a therefore_o all_o thing_n take_v several_o be_v good_a
