Choose the life that is noblest, for custom can make it sweet to thee.
XXI Let thy speech of God be renewed day by day, aye, rather than thy meat and drink. XXII Even as the Sun doth not wait for prayers and incantations to rise, but shines forth and is welcomed by all: so thou also wait not for clapping of hands and shouts and praise to do thy duty; nay, do good of thine own accord, and thou wilt be loved like the Sun. XXIII Let no man think that he is loved by any who loveth none. |
