Legal Definition

Those timid and overly cautious souls who always wish to see where they are putting their feet, who are always turning out of the way to avoid making a false step, and who are dread­fully afraid of contracting the least stain will not advance half so fast as the other, more generous souls, and death often over­takes them before their course is run. It is not those who com­mit the fewest faults who are the holiest, but those who have the most courage, the most generosity, and the most love, who make the greatest efforts, and who are not afraid of stumbling a little, or even of falling and staining themselves a little, pro­vided they can always advance. Our faults can lead us closer to God

Throughout this poem, the poet engages with themes of truth/lies and relationships. Their complex and incredibly unhealthy relationship is built on lies. But, interestingly enough, lies they’re both aware of. The mutual deception appears to be what’s holding them together. He knows the Dark Lady has been unfaithful to him, just as she knows he’s old and getting older. Without their lies, their relationship (whatever it might be) would fall apart. Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much. to find fault with, blame, or censure SYNONYMS 1. blemish; frailty, shortcoming. fault, failing, foible, weakness, vice imply shortcomings or imperfections in a person. fault is the common word used to refer to any of the average shortcomings of a person; Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that you may be healed.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Strong's 1510: I am, exist. The first person singular present indicative; a prolonged form of a primary and defective verb; I exist. The speaker summarizes this situation in the next two lines. He says that he pretends to believe her lies just as she pretends to believe his act. This balances out the scales. Both sides are untruthful.

Alliteration: the repetition of words with the same consonant sound. For example, “faults” and “flattered” in line fourteen and “sides” and “simple” in line eight. So admit your sins to each other, and pray for each other so that you will be healed. Prayers offered by those who have God's approval are effective. Not that all Roman Catholic divines, indeed, have thus read the injunction. Some of the ablest and greatest have admitted "that we cannot certainly affirm sacramental confession to have been meant or spoken of in this place" (Hooker). How then did the gradual perversion take hold of men's minds? The most laborious investigation of history and theology will alone answer the question properly; and here only a brief resume is possible. There can be little doubt that, strictly consonant with the apostolic charge, open confession was the custom of old. Offenders hastened to some minister of God, and in words, by which all present in the congregation might take notice of the fault, declared their guilt; convenient remedies were as publicly prescribed, and then all present joined in prayer to God. But after awhile, for many patent reasons, this plain talk about sins was rightly judged to be a cause of mischief to the young and innocent; and such confessions were relegated to a private hearing. The change was in most ways beneficial, and hardly suspected of being a step in a completely new doctrine. It needed years--centuries, in fact--to develop into the hard system of compulsory individual bondage which cost Europe untold blood and treasure to break asunder. A salutary practice in the case of some unhappy creatures, weakened by their vices into a habit of continual sin, was scarcely to be conceived as a rule thrust upon all the Christian world. Yet such it was, and "at length auricular confession, followed by absolution and satisfaction, was elevated to the full dignity of a necessary sacrament. The Council of Trent anathematises all who deny it to be truly and properly a sacrament instituted by Christ Himself, and necessary to salvation ( jure divino); or who say that the method of confessing secretly to the priest alone . . . is alien to Christ's institution, and of human invention" (Harold Browne). Marvellous perversity of acute brains and worthy sentiment, showing only how steep is the way of error; and how for Christian as for Jew the danger of tradition is perilous indeed. "To conclude," in the words of Hooker, "we everywhere find the use of confession, especially public, allowed of, and commended by the fathers; but that extreme and rigorous necessity of auricular and private confession, which is at this day so mightily upheld by the Church of Rome, we find not. It was not then the faith and doctrine of God's Church, as of the Papacy at this present--(1) that the only remedy for sin after baptism is sacramental penitency; (2) that confession in secret is an essential part thereof; (3) that God Himself cannot now forgive sins without the priest; (4) that because forgiveness at the hands of the priests must arise from confession in the offender, therefore to confess unto him is a matter of such necessity as, being not either in deed, or, at the least, in desire, performed, excludeth utterly from all pardon, and must consequently in Scripture be commanded wheresoever any promise of forgiveness is made. No, no; these opinions have youth in their countenance. Antiquity knew them not; it never thought nor dreamed of them" ( E. P., vi. iv. 14).
