_Talmud._ 80. A woman will not throw away a garland, though soiled, which her lover gave: not in the object lies a present’s worth, but in the love which it was meant to mark. _Bhāravi._ 81. Men who have not observed discipline, and have not gained treasure in their youth, perish like old herons in a lake without fish. _Dhammapada._ 82. As drops of bitter medicine, though minute, may have a salutary force, so words, though few and painful, uttered seasonably, may rouse the prostrate energies of those who meet misfortune with despondency. _Bhāravi._ 83. There are three whose life is no life: he who lives at another’s table; he whose wife domineers over him; and he who suffers bodily affliction. _Talmud._ 84. Let thy words between two foes be such that if they were to become friends thou shouldst not be ashamed. _Sa’dī._ 85. An indiscreet man is more hurtful than an ill-natured one; for as the latter will only attack his enemies, and those he wishes ill to, the other injures indifferently both his friends and foes. _Addison._ 86. A man of quick and active wit For drudgery is more unfit, Compared to those of duller parts, Than running nags are to draw carts. _Butler._ 87. All affectation is the vain and ridiculous attempt of poverty to appear rich. _Lavater._ 88. There never was, there never will be, a man who is always praised, or a man who is always blamed. _Dhammapada._ 89. A good man’s intellect is piercing, yet inflicts no wound; his actions are deliberate, yet bold; his heart is warm, but never burns; his speech is eloquent, yet ever true. _Māgha._ 90. He who can feel ashamed will not readily do wrong. _Talmud._ 91. A stranger who is kind is a kinsman; an unkind kinsman is a stranger. _Hitopadesa._ 92. The good to others kindness show, And from them no return exact; The best and greatest men, they know, Thus ever nobly love to act.[7] _Mahābhārata._ [7] Cf. Luke, VI, 34, 35. 93. Trees loaded with fruit are bent down; the clouds when charged with fresh rain hang down near the earth: even so good men are not uplifted through prosperity. Such is the natural character of the liberal.
