“On the other hand, it is evident that man never attains to a true self-knowledge until he have previously contemplated the face of God, and come down after such contemplation to look into himself. . . .

“Lust 27[†] h “You have heard that it was said, i ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28[†]But I say to you that j everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29[†] k If your right eye l causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into m hell. 30 k And if your right hand l causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into m hell.”
