degrees,
as
well
as
the
other
losses,
and
this
appa-rent
inclination
for
evil
is
involuntary
;
for
that
evil
which
makes
us
so
vile
in
our
own
eyes
is
really
no
evil
at
all.
The
things
which
bring
defilement
to
these
persons
are
certain
faults
which
only
lie
in
the
feelings.
As
soon
as
they
see
the
beauty
of
a
virtue,
they
seem
to
be
incessantly
falling
into
the
contrary
vice
:
for
example,
if
they
love
truth,
they
speak
hastily
or
with
exaggeration,
and
fancy
they
lie
at
every
moment,
although
in
fact
they
do
but
speak
against
their
sentiments
;
and
it
is
thus
with
all
the
other
virtues
;
the
more
important
these
virtues
are,
and
the
more
strongly
they
cling
to
them,
because
they
appear
the
more
essential,
the
greater
is
the
force
with
which
they
are
torn
from
them.
