{107a} What brought you here.—­Pride is the greatest of all the deadly sins.  Compare Spenser’s Faery Queen I. c.  IV, where “proud Lucifera, as men did call her,” was attended by “her six sage counsellors”—­the other sins.  Shakespere names this sin Ambition: 

Cromwell, I charge thee, fling away ambition,
For by this sin fell the angels.

{108a} Sarah.—­v.  Apocrypha, the book of Tobit, c.  VI.

{110a} If she and her scholars—­Cp.: 

At nos virtutes ipsas invertimus atque sincerum cupimus vas incrustare. probus quis nobiscum vivit multum demissus homo:  illi tardo cognomen pingui damus. his fugit omnes insidias nullique malo latus obdit apertum pro bene sano at non incauto fictum astutumque vocamus.

- Horace:  Sat.  I. iii.
