and inspired by charity, which "binds everything
together in perfect harmony";[105] it is the form
of the virtues; it articulates and orders them
among themselves; it is the source and the goal of
their Christian practice. Charity upholds and
purifies our human ability to love, and raises it to
the supernatural perfection of divine love.
