To Florus 1.83

To state it briefly, it is a capacity whose sole watchful task is to ensure that no one is either driven into sin or dragged away from sin by someone else while the will is held captive. That the will cannot be captured unless it chooses to surrender is shown by courage, whose strength in despising pain has constantly shone forth among both pagans and Christians.
