Tricassini (Capuchin): every infant has sufficient grace for salvation.

Not in themselves — they cannot receive it yet.

But in parents and parents’ friends who can bring them to baptism — and so to salvation.

Latin

XI. Haec est sententia Caroli Joseph Tricassini Concionatoris Capucini, in libro nuper edito de necessaria ad salutem gratia omnibus & singulis data, secundae partis sectione ultima, ubi haec est ejus conclusio, Omnes & singuli parvuli habent gratiam sufficientem ad salutem, non quidem in seipsis, cum ejus recipiendae sint incapaces, sed in suis parentibus, & parentum amicis, qui possunt eos perducere ad baptismum, & per hoc ad salutem.
