Read the following passage and answer questions 196-200.
   Duty rounds the whole of life, from our entrance into it until our exit from it. There is duty to superiors, duty to inferiors, and duty to equals. There is duty to man, and duty toGod. Wherever there is power to use or to direct, there is duty.
   The abiding sense of duty is the very crown of character. It is the upholding law of man in his highest attitudes. Without it the individual totters and falls before the first purr of adversity or temptation. Whereas, inspired by it, the weakest becomes strong and full of courage.
   Duty is based upon a sense of justice - justice inspired by love, which is the most perfect form of goodness. Duty is not a sentiment, but a principle pervading life. It exhibits itself in conduct and in acts, which are mainly determined by man’s conscience and free will
   The voice of conscience speaks in duty alone. Without its regulating and controlling influence, the brightest and greatest intellect may be merely a light that leads us astray.Conscience sets a man upon his feet. Conscience is the moral governor of the heart. It is the governor of right action, right thought, right faith and right life. Only through its dominating influence can the noble and upright character be fully developed.
