7 Caution is near akin to discretion, but has more timidity in it – and
is applied to subjects from whence greater danger may arise. It is
prudence wherever there is virtue in it.

8 Enterprize is activity combined with comparative fearlessness, with
reference to evil results – it is one of the forms of activity, and may be
considered a species of intellectual courage either facing danger (i.e.
probable evil) or turning away aside from it. This may be either the result
of the will, – or of the non-application of the will to the subject.
Attention is the application of the will, – when the will is acted on with
a considerable degree of force.

9 Assiduity is a continued enterprize – applied for a considerable
length of time to the same subject, – without any long interruption.

10 Economy is frugality combined with good management, which is
an intellectual attribute – it is sometimes used without reference to economy –
& implies a self-denial which is not necessary to economy. Temptations
to dissipation surround every man & here as on other parts of the field the continued practice of self-denial
is a habit of virtue.
