IT is like the case when one endeavours to strike some mighty prize of
virtue on high. pointed out by some very small mark; with the keenest
eyesight he points the aim of his dart, knowing that large rewards of glory
and prizes depend on his hitting it; and he turns away his gaze from every
other consideration, and must direct it thither, where he sees that the
reward and prize is placed, because he would be sure to lose the prize of
his skill and the reward of his prowess if the keenness of his gaze should
be diverted ever so little.
