68 ESSJTS IN BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION- St. Victor and Thomas Aquinas as adepts in this art. From the Roman Catholic point of view it is a merit that these writers buttress the doctrinal system of the Church with Scripture texts. Among them Thomas Aquinas is jacile prin- ceps because of the thoroughly systematic manner in which he has carried out the theory. "Pope Clement XII in a Bull beginning with the words 'By the Word of God' makes men- tion of fourteen Sovereign Pontiffs who in solemn decre...es have passed magnificent eulogiums on the Angel of the schools^" ^'^ and the number has been added to by Leo XIII, whose encyclical of 1879 urged the restoration of Christian philosophy according to the mind of St. Thomas, and who ' pointed out that at the Council of Trent "the Summa of Thomas Aquinas lay open on the altar with the Holy Scrip- tures and the decrees of the Sovereign Pontiffs, that from it might be sought counsel and reasons and answers." ^^ From the modern point of view it is of course no merit that Scrip- ture should be interpreted according to a doctrinal system assumed at the outset.
