The grace of Christ’s mysteries is rich in many gifts.

Rather, he shows them to be his own by raising what he made in them through additional benefits, before their own obedient exercise of will.

Latin source witness

Latin

Huius concupiscentiae reatum regeneratio sola dimittit, ac per hoc generatio trahit

Ergo quod generatum est regeneretur, ut similiter, quia non potest aliter, quod tractum est remittatur

mysteriorum Christi gratiam multis locupletem esse muneribus

Hinc potius suos approbat, quod ante proprium voluntatis obsequium, hoc quod in eis fecit beneficiorum sublimat augmentis
