We must now consider satisfaction; about which four things have to be considered: (1) Its nature; (2) Its possibility; (3) Its quality; (4) The means whereby man offers satisfaction to God.
Under the first head there are three points of inquiry:
A1 Whether satisfaction is a virtue or an act of virtue?
A2 Whether it is an act of justice?
A3 Whether the definition of satisfaction contained in the text is suitable?
