Chapter II: On the Object and Breadth of Sacred Scripture
— Quoted with Augustine's gloss: "unfeigned faith" = sincere faith; "good conscience" = hope; "charity from a pure heart" = charity
"For the end of the commandment," says the Apostle, "is charity from a pure heart, and a good conscience, and an unfeigned faith."
