Text :
----------------------------------


Or fame or life, 

 Which do you hold more dear? 

 Or life or wealth, 

 To which would you adhere? 

 Keep life and lose those other things; 

 Keep them and lose your life:--which brings 

 Sorrow and pain more near?

Thus we may see, 

 Who cleaves to fame 

 Rejects what is more great; 

 Who loves large stores 

 Gives up the richer state.

Who is content 

 Needs fear no shame. 

 Who knows to stop 

 Incurs no blame. 

 From danger free 

 Long live shall he.


     From : Part 2, Ch. 44:1-3.
