    CASTITAS, CONTINENTIA

    84. Inter castitatem et continentiam hoc interest. Quod castitas est corporis incorruptio, continentia vero post corruptionem sexui renuntiatio. &stellam; Primum ex his felicitatis est, non esse quod metuas; secundum virtutis est, prosternere hostem libidinis, a quo toties victus atque dejectus es. Quo primum cedere humilitatis est, secundum patientiae. &stellam; Harum prima felicitatis est, non nosse in totum a quo postea liberari optabis; secunda vero virtutis contemnere [col. 19C] vitium quod optime noveris. Alii continentiam in conjugiis [ Al., conjugibus] specialibus, castitatem in virginibus intelligunt. Item quidam castitatem accipiunt in mente, virginitatem vero in corpore. Illa est autem vera castitas, quae nec corpore, nec mente polluitur.
