On Morals, the second part of William?s treatise On the Virtues and the Vices, forms one component of his vast The Teaching on God in the Mode of Wisdom. In On Morals he extols the value of the nine virtues ? faith, fear, hope, charity, piety, zeal, poverty, humility, and patience ? in a sophisticated narrative where each of the virtues speaks for itself, explaining its importance. | |
