three_o point_n which_o i_o undertake_v concern_v the_o thing_n enjoin_v to_o be_v perform_v for_o the_o gain_n of_o indulgence_n because_o i_o say_v all_o power_n give_v by_o christ_n unto_o his_o

superabundant_a satisfaction_n be_v give_v so_o that_o it_o may_v be_v dispense_v forth_o with_o prudent_a liberality_n not_o pour_v out_o with_o lavish_v prodigality_n wherefore_o all_o protestant_n

exceed_o to_o be_v mark_v that_o when_o the_o pope_n grant_v a_o great_a indulgence_n which_o may_v be_v obtain_v by_o do_v of_o something_o perhaps_o as_o small_a as_o give_v a_o alm_n of_o three_o half_a penny_n the_o reason_n of_o the_o grant_n of_o this_o indulgence_n be_v not_o mere_o that_o so_o little_a a_o good_a work_n shall_v be_v perform_v for_o then_o as_o s._n bonaventure_n teach_v it_o will_v be_v a_o imprudent_a and_o a_o impossible_a grant_n but_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o grant_n of_o such_o a_o indulgence_n be_v the_o obtain_v of_o some_o very_a great_a good_a and_o a_o good_a so_o great_a for_o this_o bellarmine_n seem_v to_o require_v that_o the_o obtain_v of_o it_o make_v more_o to_o god_n glory_n &_o be_v more_o grateful_a to_o he_o than_o it_o will_v be_v to_o have_v our_o forgive_v sin_n punish_v

to_o the_o giver_n those_o alm_n be_v which_o be_v bestow_v upon_o the_o soul_n in_o purgatory_n or_o upon_o other_o for_o their_o relief_n will_v appear_v by_o a_o strange_a example_n which_o i_o
