Genesis 3 verses 17-19 - Error - The fall of error

1910 Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures is the Final Edition authorized by Mary Baker Eddy.
This is subtitle 2 of 3 for the Bible verse below.
Bible Verses: Genesis 3 verses 17-19
  	     Genesis iii. 17-19.  And unto Adam He said, Because
  	thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast
21	eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou
  	shalt not eat of it:  cursed is the ground for thy sake; in
  	sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life:  thorns
24	also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt
  	eat the herb of the field:  in the sweat of thy face shalt thou
  	eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it
27	wast thou taken:  for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt
  	thou return. 

  	    The way of error is awful to contemplate. The illu-
  	sion of sin is without hope or God. If man's spiritual
12	gravitation and attraction to one Father, in	                                 The fall
  	whom we "live, and move, and have our be-	                                 of error 
  	ing," should be lost, and if man should be governed by
15	corporeality instead of divine Principle, by body instead
  	of by Soul, man would be annihilated. Created by flesh
  	instead of by Spirit, starting from matter instead of from
18	God, mortal man would be governed by himself. The
  	blind leading the blind, both would fall. 
  	    Passions and appetites must end in pain. They are
21	"of few days, and full of trouble." Their supposed joys
  	are cheats. Their narrow limits belittle their gratifica-
  	tions, and hedge about their achievements with thorns.
