"PRUDENCE affecting the interests of the life now present and also of that which is to come"[1]
"She enters not so much into the motives and feelings of the past, as into his thoughts and feelings for the present—those inward phases of the soul’s reflection, when, having forsaken the old things, a new life is to be lived, on new and better principles. It is important we should ourselves inquire whether any vain regrets intertwine themselves with our present obedience; whether an earnest strife is waged against the carnal thoughts that rise within us; and whether that strife is crowned with victory, so that carnal things are 'vanquished,' and die within us."[1]
