The idea of Duty was of Stoical origin, fostered and developed by the
Roman spirit and legislation. The early Stoics had two different
words,--one for the "suitable" [Greek: kathaekon], or incomplete
propriety, admitting of degrees, and below the point of rectitude, and
another for the "right" [Greek: katorthoma], or complete rectitude of
action, which none could achieve except the wise man. It is a
significant circumstance that the "suitable" is the lineal ancestor of
our word "duty" (through the Latin _officium_).
