Fortitude

Fortitude, or Strength, sometimes also called Courage, is one of the Four Cardinal Virtues of the Catholic Church.

Its accompanying animal is the lion. Often, Fortitude is depicted as having tamed the ferocious lion. Cf. e.g. the Tarot trump called Strength. It is sometimes seen as a depiction of the Catholic Church's triumph over sin.
