"All virtues abide in valor as [precious] substance [abides in a vessel]; the cause of victory is accomplishment, resting on action and, together with it, on fate. [But] if someone endowed with strength fails through negligence to employ it, through that very breach even a strong enemy perishes at the hands of his foes."

Here valor is likened to a vessel holding every good. Tellingly, success depends on both action and fate [providence's will]: human effort and the grace of providence converge in victory. And it is said: negligence destroys even the strong—for a gift not put into action opens the gate to ruin. Scripture thus shows diligence to be the condition of victory; what follows concerns the vices ruinous to a king.
