Prudential
Prudence, temperance, fortitude and justice (the four cardinal virtues)
Lust, Gluttony,Greed,Sloth,Wrath,Envy & Pride, The 7 Cardinal sins.
BTW there are actually 7 cardinal virtues (to offset the cardinal sins),Chastity,Temperance, Charity,Diligence,Forgiveness,Kindness & Humility
The four I listed are from Plato's Republic. Others have added to them since. Peter Kreeft at the Catholic Education Resource Center writes:
'The four cardinal virtues — justice, wisdom (prudence), courage (fortitude), and moderation (self-control, temperance) — come not just from Plato or Greek philosophy. You will find them in Scripture. They are knowable by human nature, which God designed, not Plato. Plato first formulated them, but he did for virtue only what Newton did for motion: he discovered and tabulated its own inherent foundational laws.
These four are called “cardinal” virtues from the Latin word for “hinge”. All other virtues hinge on these four. That includes lesser Virtues, which are corollaries of these, and also greater virtues (the three “theological virtues”), which are the flower of these'.
