- The candidate 'continence' is highly similar to the source 'continenency'. Both are typed as 'virtue' and described as a divine gift that 'binds into One' or 'bound up and brought back into One'. The labels are a minor spelling variation, and the core properties and relationships (divine origin, unifying effect) are consistent, with supporting source text for the unifying effect being nearly identical.
