Seven. seven of them bad.
Gluttony: glut'n-i; n. the inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.
See PIPPIN.
The food stared him in the eyes. He was always hungry - no matter how much he ate, he still wanted more. He needed breakfast, second breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, supper - he needed this all to be satisfied. Whenever there was nothing needed to be done, he would eat, he would have something in his mouth.
And it caught up to him, as he had a belly. And yet, he would not stop, he continued to eat. He continued to ask for food whenever he was hungry, and nothing was enough for him until h arrived in Gondor, where a feast was placed in front of his small body. His eyes widened, his mouth opened and his stomach growled.
And so he ate, he ate as much as he could until he couldn't possibly eat anymore. And when his stomach hurt, he had deserved it. But it didn't stop him from doing it all over again. And as the stomachache grew worse, he simply continued to eat. A stomachache wouldn't stop him, it wouldn't ruin his appetite. The mushrooms still looked good, the bread, the cheese and the apples were still delicious.
And as Merry ate more, so would he and he continued to eat whenever it was possible for him to. When he wasn't eating, he was hoping to eat, wishing for food. He would complain that he was hungry and needed food. It would never stop, he just ate and ate and ate until he couldn't eat anymore, and then he ate again.
Three. Gluttony. Seven. Sin. Deadly
