(7)
A contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth
it not.
(6)
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man
doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not;
he knoweth all things but his own ignorance.
(5)
Thinking, understanding, reasoning, willing, call not these
Soul They are its actions, but they are not its essence.
(4)
Scorn also to depress thy competitor by any dishonest or
unworthy method; strive to raise thyself above him only by excelling him; so
shall thy contest for superiority be crowned with honour, if not with success.
(3)
Be upright in thy whole life; be content in all its
changes;so shalt thou make thy profit out of all occurrences; so shall
everything that happeneth unto thee be the source of praise.
(2)
The lips of the wise are as the doors of a cabinet; no
sooner are they opened, but treasures are poured out before thee.
(1)
As a camel beareth labor, and heat, and hunger, and thirst,
through deserts of sand, and fainteth not; so the fortitude of a man shall
sustain him through all perils.
