On curbing the Passions[30]
.
By guarding against all violent passions, a
man leadeth a sweet and agreeable life,
Free from the inquietudes, which destroy health.
Not that I would blame the natural love,
Which bindeth father and son, or uniteth brethren;
They are to each other, what the branches of the tree are to the trunk.
This love ought to endure as much as the mutual relation.
