Chapter XXXI.
That no one can get the better of covetousness unless
he stays in the Cœnobium: and how one can remain
there.
But
we shall certainly not be
suffered to do this, nor even to remain under the rule of a system,
unless the virtue of patience, which can only spring from humility as
its source, is first securely fixed and established in us. For the one
teaches us not to trouble any one else; the other, to endure with
magnanimity wrongs offered to us.
