This process appears to have certain fundamental advantages over any hitherto known. In spite of his quietness, and the anger with which he would have rejected such a suggestion, he had the power of seeing visions.

Pride is a sin against God, for it makes man self-centered. Envy is the evil eye that looks with malignant intent upon the more successful man. Gloomy indifference is that dangerous state of mind which leads one finally to embrace sin. Lust is the flame through which every man and woman must sometime pass,--namely, the desires of the flesh...
