Of Two Evils, The Lesser

Set Me Free From Evil Passions, And Heal My Heart Of All Inordinate Affections; That Being Inwardly Cured And Thoroughly Cleansed, I May Be Made Fit To Love, Courageous To Suffer, Steady To Persevere.

Set Not Thyself To Attain Much Rest, But Much Patience.

Love Him, And Keep Him For Thy Friend, Who, When All Go Away, Will Not Forsake Thee, Nor Suffer Thee To Perish At The Last.

Thy Peace Shall Be In Much Patience.

Always Keep A Good Distance Between Yourself And Lying, Quarreling, Detracting, Insulting And Gossip. The Person Who Can Do That Will Some Day Learn To Enjoy The Silence.
