Adam cared more for the happiness of Eve than for his own,
and Eve at the same time more for the happiness of Adam
than for her own, Satan might have spared himself

have brought to a speedy finish termination the history of man.

D It is very idle to talk about duties — the very word
has in it something disagreable and repulsive; and
talk about it as we may the word will not become a

interest to begin. Let him say what he pleases, to
interest must and will be made subservient.
