George Leo Haydock Catholic
1774–1849
“Coveted, through impure love. Greek, “I am pure from all the sin of a man, and I have not defiled my name, nor the name of my father, in the land of our captivity. I am an only child, ” &c. (Haydock) — Lust: a very high encomium; which Sara mentions without vanity, placing her confidence in God. (Menochius) (Proverbs xx. 9.)”
