Seven Deadly Sins

About this book

Dr. Stalker's essays on the Seven Deadly Sins contain many timely hints for conduct, and touch some delicate subjects with much sagacity. The order followed is that indicated by the scholastic mnemonic Saligia, which is made up of the initial letters of Superbia, Avaritia, Luxuria, Invidia, Gula, Ira, Accidia. The subject is somewhat of a novelty in Protestant religious literature, and it is handled in a way that should provoke thought. - Summary by The London Quarterly and Holborn Review
