trage and acknowledgment, injury and reparation.

_Johnson._

75.

To reprehend well is the most necessary and the hardest part of
friendship. Who is it that does not sometimes merit a check, and yet
how few will endure one? Yet wherein can a friend more unfold his
love than in preventing dangers before their birth, or in bringing a
man to safety who is travelling on the road to ruin? I grant there
is a manner of reprehending which turns a benefit into an injury,
and then it both strengthens error and wounds the giver. When thou
chidest thy wandering friend do it secretly, in season, in love, not
in the ear of a popular convention, for oftentimes the presence of a
multitude makes a man take up an unjust defence, rather than fall
into a just shame.

_Feltham._

76.

I put no account on him who esteems himself just as the popular
breath may chance to raise him.

_Goethe._

77.

He who seeks wealth sacrifices his own pleasure, and, like him who
carries burdens for others, bears the load of anxiety.

_Hitopadesa._

78.

Circumspection in calamity; mercy in greatness; good speeches in
assemblies; fortitude in adversity: these are the self-attained
perfections of great souls.

_Hitopadesa._

79.

The best preacher is the heart; the best teacher is time; the best
book is the world; the best friend is God.

_Talmud._

80.

A woman will not throw away a garland, though soiled, which her
lover gave: not in the object lies a present's worth, but in the
love which it was meant to mark.

_Bharavi._

81.

Men who have not observed discipline, and have not gained treasure
in their youth, perish like old herons in a lake without fish.

_Dhammapada._

82.

As drops of bitter medicine, though minute, may have a salutary
force, so words, though few and painful, uttered seasonably, may
rouse the prostrate energies of those who meet misfortune with
despondency.

_Bharavi._

83.

There are three whose life is no life
