Question — McHugh–Callan, Moral Theology
Question II. The Duties of All Classes of Men (the Moral Virtues)
1626.
After the theological virtues, which offer to God the services of faith, hope and charity, and which direct man to his Last End, follow the cardinal or moral virtues, which perfect the actions and passions of man, and make of them means for tending to the Last End. Of these four virtues (prudence, justice, fortitude and temperance), prudence is ranked first, as being the director of the others.
