Guy of Warwick, in deep remorse, loould expiate his
offences against God. He told his wish to Alquin, Dean
of a religious brotherhood, and asked counsel for the
ivelfare of his soul. The holy friar prepared a sermon,
in which he instructed Guy how to discriminate between
virtue and vice. The discourse unfolds principles of
spiritual groicth through a twofold medium, the renun-
ciation of evil and the achievement of good. Alquin
concludes with an appeal fen' benevolence, which is en-
forced by an account of the incident of the widow of
Zarephath.
