How Fortune Brings To Earth

If A Hundred Or A Thousand People, All Of The Same Age, Of The Same Constitution And Habits, Were Suddenly Seized By The Same Illness, And One Half Of Them Were To Place Themselves Under The Care Of Doctors, Such As They Are In Our Time, Whilst The Other Half Entrusted Themselves To Nature And To Their Own Discretion, I Have Not The Slightest Doubt That There Would Be More Cases Of Death Amongst The Former, And More Cases Of Recovery Among The Latter.

Hope Is Incredible To The Slave Of Grief.

For Virtue Only Finds Eternal Fame.

For Death Betimes Is Comfort, Not Dismay, And Who Can Rightly Die Needs No Delay.

And Tears Are Heard Within The Harp I Touch.
