COURAGE, HUMILITY, ETC.

1. The Duty of Courage is subordinate to those already discussed: and in drawing the line between the Excellence of Courage and the Fault of Foolhardiness we seem forced to have recourse to considerations of expediency. 332-334

2. Similarly the maxim of Humility seems either clearly subordinate or not clearly determinate. 334-336
