If You Carry Your Cross

No Man Ruleth Safely But He That Is Willingly Ruled.

Remember Always Your End, And That Lost Time Does Not Return.

Too Many Instances There Are Of Daring Men, Who By Presuming To Sound The Deep Things Of Religion, Have Cavilled And Argued Themselves Out Of All Religion.

Count Not Thyself To Have Found True Peace, If Thou Hast Felt No Grief; Nor That Then All Is Well If Thou Hast No Adversary; Nor That This Is Perfect, If All Things Fall Out According To Thy Desire.

The Intention Which Is Fixed On God As Its Only End Will Keep People Steady In Their Purposes, And Deliver Them From Being The Joke And Scorn Of Fortune.
