this_o cause_n with_o i_o have_v do_v that_o sufficient_o before_o whether_o the_o distinction_n be_v real_a formal_a or_o denominative_a the_o thomist_n scotist_n and_o nominal_n have_v dispute_v

the_o natural_a the_o moral_a and_o the_o dominative_a part_n in_o the_o first_o we_o have_v a_o active_a power_n a_o intellect_n and_o freewill_n in_o the_o second_o fortitude_n or_o holy_a

ever_o you_o will_v call_v our_o faculty_n and_o their_o moral_a perfection_n it_o be_v undoubted_a that_o in_o god_n his_o omnipotency_n wisdom_n and_o goodness_n be_v his_o essence_n and_o yet_o as_o much_o distinct_a as_o be_v aforesaid_a and_o what_o mortal_a man_n be_v able_a to_o say_v whether_o the_o distinction_n of_o person_n be_v either_o great_a or_o less_o than_o this_o and_o remember_v that_o as_o i_o speak_v of_o motion_n light_n and_o heat_n both_z as_o in_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o sun_n as_o i_o may_v call_v they_o and_o in_o the_o act_n or_o emanation_n and_o of_o
