Thy beams, so reverend and strong Why shouldst thou think? I could eclipse and cloud

reflect the similar attributes between all the sins and Faustus. The reason Faustus commits his soul to the Devil is for self indulgent reasons. Faustus chooses his love of magic over theology, “O, what a world of profit and delight,/Of power, of honour, of omnipotence,/Is promis’d to the studious artisan!” (I.I. 54-56), which is a challenge to God, and displays the sin of pride. He craves the knowledge and power of a Demigod and prioritizes his own ambitions over that of others, even going as far
