You may think, passer-by, that Fate
Is a pit-fall outside of yourself,
Around which you may walk by the use of foresight
And wisdom.
...

In the shape of your own image in the mirror;

And wisdom.

In time you shall see Fate approach you
In the shape of your own image in the mirror;
Like flag

Spread no wider than its roots.
And how shall the soul of a man
Be larger than the life he has lived?

That the branches of a tree
Spread no wider than its roots.
And how shall the soul of a man
Be larger than the life he has lived?

The tongue may be an unruly member --
But silence poisons the soul.
Berate me who will -- I am content.
