[95] I admire also all-virtuous Leah, because when Asher was born, symbol of counterfeit wealth the outward and visible, she cries “Happy am I, for the women will call me happy” (Gen. 30:13). She aims at being favourably regarded, thinking praise due to her not only from thoughts masculine and truly manly, by which the nature that has no blemish and truth impervious to bribes is held in honour, but also from those which are more feminine, which are wholly at the mercy of appearances and powerless to understand anything presented to contemplation outside them.
