Note (a) ch B 202. Ch. XVI.
Frugality, itself a virtue, is an ancillary
to all the other virtues: to more than
to generosity, to which the unthinking are
so apt to regard it as an adversary oppressor The sacrifice
of the present to the future is the common
basis of all the virtues: —frugality is among
the most unremittingdifficult and persevering exemplifications
of that sacrifice. Important in
all classes, it is more particularly so in
those which most abound in
minds. In these to promote frugality, is to promote
compassion and sobriety: —to that raging
vice, which in painful times outstrips all
other moral cause of unhappiness put together.
In the prospects opened by frugality,
the wife and children have a principle
: they derive nothing but
and distress, from the money spent on the
or the Alehouse Compound with this
prodigal, this hardest most selfish unfeeling of is a
man of virtue.
