evinces a marked deficiency of moral
principle; with moderate Secretiveness and Acquisitiveness, and only full
Destructiveness and Combativeness, and large Adhesiveness,
Approbativeness, Benevolence, Ideality, and intellect, and a fine
temperament, may live a tolerably blameless life, yet, on close scrutiny,
will lack the moral in feeling, but may be safely trusted because true to
promises; that is, conscience having less to contend with, its deficiency
is less observable. Such should most earnestly cultivate this faculty: p.
132.

VERY SMALL.--Is almost wholly destitute of moral feeling, and wholly
controlled by the other faculties: p. 133.

16. HOPE.

EXPECTATION; ANTICIPATION of future success and happiness. Adapted to
man's relations with the future. Perverted, it becomes visionary and
castle-building.

LARGE.--Expects much from the future; contemplates with pleasure the
bright features of life's picture; never desponds; overrates prospective
good, and underrates and overlooks obstacles and evils; calculates on more
than the nature of the case will warrant; expects, and hence attempts a
great deal, and is therefore always full of business; is sanguine, and
rises above present trouble by hoping for better in future, and though
disappointed, hopes on still; builds some air castles, and lives in the
future more than in the present; with large Combativeness, Firmness, and
Causality, is enterprising, never gives up the ship, but struggles
manfully through difficulties; and with large Approbativeness, and full
Self-Esteem added, feels adequate to difficulties, and grapples with them
spiritedly; with large Self-Esteem, thinks that every thing it attempts
must succeed, and with large Causality added, considers its plans
well-nigh perfect; with large Acquisitiveness lays out money freely in
view of future gain; with large Approbativeness and Self-Esteem, hopes for
renown, honor, etc.; with large Veneration and Spirituality, hopes to
attain exalted moral excellence, and should check it by acting on only
half it promises, and reasoning against it: p. 137.

VERY LARGE.--Has unbounded expectations; builds a world of castles in the
air; lives in the future; enjoys things in anticipation more than in
possession; with small Continuity, has too many irons in the fire; with an
active temperament added, takes on more business than it can work off
properly; is too much hurried to do things in season; with large
Acquisitiveness,
