'When he finds himself freed from it [his dominant
vice], he should once again and with similar intensity shine light on
the hidden places of his heart, locate for himself whatever is still
more horrible that he notices remaining, and move against it in
particular with all the arms of the Spirit. Thus, when he has
consistently overcome more powerful foes, he will have a quick and easy
victory over the ones that remain, because the mind too becomes stronger
through a succession of triumphs, and subsequent struggles with weaker
foes make for readier successes in the battle. So it is with those who
are accustomed to fight for prizes against all sorts of beasts in the
presence of the kings of this world.'
