Contemplate The Extent And Stability

Nothing Is Miserable Unless You Think It So.

Contemplate The Extent And Stability Of The Heavens, And Then At Last Cease To Admire Worthless Things.

He Who Has Calmly Reconciled His Life To Fate, And Set Proud Death Beneath His Feet, Can Look Fortune In The Face, Unbending Both To Good And Bad; His Countenance Unconquered.

Whose Happiness Is So Firmly Established That He Has No Quarrel From Any Side With His Estate Of Life?

Love Binds People Too, In Matrimony's Sacred Bonds Where Chaste Lovers Are Met, And Friends Cement Their Trust And Friendship. How Happy Is Mankind, If The Love That Orders The Stars Above Rules, Too, In Your Hearts.
