1. For Deletion of Sin ‘To be Penitent’ is not Required as an Act of any Determinate Virtue

128. The first is plain from what was aid, that ‘to be penitent’ suffices according to any of the four significations stated before - as is proved by the authority of Ezekiel 18.21-22, “In the hour the sinner laments, he will be saved” [in Gratian Decretum p.1 d.50 ch.14, Lombard Sent. d.17 ch.1 n.4, from Caesarius of Arles, sermon 70 n.2: “In the day the sinner will be converted, all his iniquities will be given over to oblivion”]. The first act and two others do not necessarily belong to the same determinate virtue, but the first to justice, the last to patience, the two in the middle to any appetitive virtue.
