The state of keeping a due mean between extremes: calmness, temperance, or equanimity. It is sometimes used with reference to our opinions, Romans 12:3 . but in general it respects our conduct in that state which comes under the description of ease or prosperity; and ought to take place in our wishes, pursuits, expectations, pleasures, and passions.

See Bp. Hall on Moderation, ser. 16; Blair's Sermons, vol. 3: ser. 12; Toplady's Works, vol.iii. ser. 10.
