33. 6. Such as the recognition of evil is, and its consequent putting away by repentance, such is the good which is of charity.

According as a man knows what is more or less evil. According as he knows the evils of faith and also the evils of life. And how he desists from them;

And desists from them as he looks to the Lord and believes in Him.
