Blessed God! what a world of evils are within us?¹ We have sinned (O Lord) above the number of the sands of the seas, our transgressions (O Lord) are multiplied, our offences are exceeding many: Many sure, that contain these streams, and yet how many are the rivulets that issue from them? There be evils of weakness against God the Father, whose attribute is Power; there be evils of ignorance against God the Son, whose attribute is Wisdom; there be evils of malice against God the holy Ghost, whose attribute is Love.
