Eve acquiesced in the love of her own power
Spirituality
St. Louis De Montfort (1710): “This [true] devotion [to Mary] consists, then, in giving ourselves entirely to our Lady, in order to belong entirely to Jesus through her. We must give her (1) our body, with all its senses and its members; (2) our soul, with all its powers; (3) our exterior goods of fortune, whether present or to come; (4) our interior and spiritual goods, which are our merits and our virtues, and our good works, past, present and future… and we must do it, further, without pretending to, or hoping for, any other recompense for our offering and service except the honor of belonging to Jesus Christ through Mary and in Mary…” (True Devotion to Mary #121)
Doctrine
“Augustine says that the woman [Eve] could not have believed the words of the serpent, had she not already acquiesced in the love of her own power, and in a presumption of self-conceit.” (St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae, Pt. I, Q. 94, A. 4, Reply to Obj. 1)
