that_o all_o our_o counsel_n be_v to_o be_v refer_v the_o chief_a of_o all_o good_a god_n be_v unto_o us._n god_n be_v to_o we_o the_o chief_a good_a neither_o be_v we_o to_o remain_v low_a nor_o

and_o charity_n and_o if_o virtue_n do_v lead_v we_o to_o happy_a life_n i_o will_v affirm_v virtue_n to_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o cast_n of_o all_o our_o love_n upon_o god_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v not_o doubt_v to_o define_v these_o four_o cardinal_n virtue_n after_o this_o manner_n that_o temperance_n shall_v be_v love_n give_v itself_o whole_o to_o he_o that_o be_v

not_o of_o what_o thing_n soever_o but_o of_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o the_o chief_a good_a chief_a wisdom_n chief_a concord_n wherefore_o we_o may_v also_o after_o this_o manner_n define_v these_o four_o cardinal_n virtue_n and_o say_v that_o temperance_n be_v love_n preserve_v itself_o whole_a and_o unspotted_a to_o god_n fortitude_n to_o be_v love_n patient_o suffer_v all_o thing_n

these_o thing_n wherewithal_o it_o be_v help_v into_o god_n from_o these_o by_o which_o it_o may_v be_v hinder_v again_o charity_n be_v the_o most_o 70._o aug._n de_fw-fr nat._n et_fw-fr gra_fw-mi
