If that holds of gratia gratis data, as the School calls it, it holds much more of the grace that makes acceptable—and most of all of that first grace of election to life, the fountain and spring of every benefit that serves salvation.

Latin

Si hoc in gratia gratis data (ut Schola loquitur) verum sit, tum multo magis in gratia gratum faciente, et maxime omnium in prima illa gratia electionis ad vitam, quae fons est et quasi scaturigo beneficiorum omnium ad salutem conferentium.
