CHAPTER 38
DESTINY
371. Resolution cometh to a man when Fortune is about to smile on him ; but Indolence appeareth when Fortune is about to leave.
372. Evil fate dulleth the faculties : but when Fortune is about to smile she first expandeth the intelligence.
373. What doth learning avail and all subtleties? It is the Spirit that is inside that prevaileth over all.
374. There are two things in the world which have nothing in common : Riches is one thing and Saintliness is quite another.
375. When the tide is against thee even good things turn to evil: and even evil things turn to good when the tide is on.
​376. What Destiny denieth thou canst not keep even with the utmost care : and even if thou scatter abroad, the things that are thine will not go away from thee.
377. Even the man who hath amassed ten million cannot enjoy his riches except as the Ordainer hath ordained.
378. Verily the destitute poor would turn their hearts towards renunciation but that Destiny reserveth them for the miseries that are their portion.
379. He that rejoiceth when good cometh, why should he fret when he receiveth evil?
380. What is there that is mightier than Destiny? For even as its victim is meditating a plan to overcome it, it forestalleth him and bringeth him down.

CHAPTER 31
ABSTAINING FROM ANGER
301. He alone can be said to forbear who hath the power to strike: as to him that hath not the power, what mattereth it whether he forbeareth or forbeareth not?
302. It is wrong to get angry even when thou art helpless to strike : and when thou hast the power, there is nothing that is worse than anger.
303. Whoever thy offender may be, forget thy anger : for from anger springeth a multitude of ills.
304. Anger killeth the smile and it destroyeth cheer : hath man a crueller foe than anger ?
305. If thou want to look after thyself, keep off from choler: for if thou keep not off, it will come upon thee and destroy thy own self.
​306. Choler destroyeth every man whom it approacheth: and it burneth also the family of him who nurseth it.
307. He who nurseth his rage as if it were a precious thing is like unto the man who dasheth his hand against the ground: the hand of this man escapeth not from injury, and the destruction of the first is as certain.
308. Even when thy wrongs burn as the flaming of many fires, it is good if thou canst abstain from anger.
309. All the desires of a man will be fulfilled on the instant if from his heart he banish anger.
310. Whoso is overwhelmed with anger is like one dead: but whoso hath forsworn wrathfulness is like unto the saints.
# The Kural or the Maxims of Tiruvalluvar/Chapter 32

CHAPTER 32
NON-INJURING
311. The pure in heart injure not others even for the sake of the wealth that glorifieth a man : for that is their way.
312. Even when another hath injured them in his hate, the pure in heart return not the injury : for that is their way.
313. If thou injure another, even though it be only a man who hath injured thee without any provocation, thou simply bringest down upon thyself evils that can never be remedied.
314. How shall a man punish them that have injured him ? Let him do them a good turn and make them ashamed in their hearts.
315. Of what avail is intelligence to a man if he doth not look on others' pain as his own and abstain from injuring any?
​316. When a man hath felt a pain for himself, let him take care that he inflicteth it not on others.
317. It is a great thing it thou injure not knowingly any man, at any time, and in any degree.
318. He who hath felt what pain meaneth to himself, how doth he bring himself to inflict it on others ?
319. If a man injureth his neighbour in the forenoon, evil will come to him in the afternoon of its own accord.
320. All evil recoileth on the head of the wrong-doer : they abstain therefore from wrong-doing who desire to be immune from ills.

B. WISDOM
CHAPTER 34
THE VANITY OF ALL THINGS
331. There is no greater folly than the infatuation that looketh upon the transient as if it were everlasting.
332. The crowd that assembleth to witness a village show, that is the symbol of great riches flowing on a man: and the dispersal of that same crowd is the type of its passing away.
333. Prosperity is transient : if thou have come by it, delay not to do things that are of lasting good.
334. Tine looketh like an innocent thing : but verily it is a saw that is continually sawing away the life of man.
335. Make haste to do good works before the tongue is paralysed and hiccough ariseth in the throat.
​336. But yesterday a man was and to-day he is not: that is the wonder of wonders in this world.
337. Man knoweth not if he shall last the next minute: but his thoughts are more than ten million.
338. The fledgeling abandoneth the broken shell of the egg and flieth away: that is the symbol of the love between the soul and the body.
339. Death is like unto a sleep: and life is like the waking after that sleep.
340. Hath the soul no home of its own, that it taketh shelter in this worthless body?
# The Kural or the Maxims of Tiruvalluvar/Chapter 35

CHAPTER 35
RENUNCIATION
341. Whatsoever thing a man hath renounced, from the grief arising from that thing hath he liberated himself.
342. If thou want joy, renounce early : for many are the delights that thou shalt enjoy after renouncing.
343. Crush thou the five senses : and everything in which thou takest delight, give up utterly.
344. To possess nothing, that is the law of the man of vows : the possession of even one thing is a coming back to the snares that he hath left.
345. To those that desire to put an end to their reincarnations, even the body is a superfluity : how much more then are other bonds?
​346. The feelings of I and Mine are nought but vanity and pride : he who crusheth them entereth a higher world than the world of the Gods.
347. Behold the man who holdeth on to attachments and giveth not them up : Grief shall take hold of him and shall not give him up.
348. They that have renounced utterly are on the path to salvation : but the others are caught in a snare.
349. The moment that attachments are broken, that very moment reincarnations cease : the man who breaketh them not continueth in vanity.
350. Take thou refuge in Him who hath conquered all attachments: and hold fast to that ark in order that all thy bonds may be broken.
# The Kural or the Maxims of Tiruvalluvar/Chapter 36

CHAPTER 36
REALISATION OF THE TRUTH
351. From the delusion of taking vanities for the Reality a man cometh by a life of sorrow.
352. Behold the man who is freed from delusion and who hath an unclouded vision : darkness ceaseth for him and joy cometh unto him.
353. Behold the man who hath freed himself from uncertainties and who hath realised the Truth : heaven is nearer to him than the earth.
354. Though risen to human birth, nought is gained if the soul realiseth not the Truth.
355. To separate the true from the false in everything, whatever its nature may be, that is the part of a wise understanding.
​356. Behold the man who hath studied deeply and hath realised the Truth : he shall enter the path that leadeth not again into this world.
357. Verily those that have meditated upon and attained to the Truth need not think at all of future incarnations.
358. It is the part of Wisdom to desire to escape the folly called birth, and to aim at realising the Supreme and the Good.
359. Behold the man who understandeth the means of his salvation and laboureth to conquer all attachments: the ills that he is yet to suffer depart from him.
360. As desire and anger and delusion leave a man, his ills also follow their pace and slowly melt away.
# The Kural or the Maxims of Tiruvalluvar/Chapter 37

CHAPTER 37
THE KILLING OF DESIRE
361. Desire is the seed that yieldeth unto every soul, and always, a never-failing crop of births.
362. If thou must needs long for anything, long for freedom from reincarnation : and that freedom shall come to thee if thou long to conquer longing.
363. There is no greater wealth here below than desirelessness : and wherever thou goest thou canst find no treasure that equalleth it.
364. Purity is nought but freedom from desire : and this freedom is achieved by yearning for perfect truthfulness.
365. It is those that have conquered their desire that are called the liberated ones: the others appear to be free but they are verily in bondage.
​366. If thou love righteousness, flee from desire : for desire is a snare and a disappointment.
367. If a man cutteth off utterly all his desires, salvation shall come to him by any path that he commandeth to it.
368. He that hath no desires hath no grief: but ills on ills descend on the man that hankereth after things.
369. Even here a man shall have everlasting joy if he killeth that greatest misery of all, desire.
370. Desire is never filled: but if a man giveth it up he attaineth perfection even at that very moment.

CHAPTER 30
TRUTHFULNESS
291. What is truthfulness? It is the speaking of that which is free from even the slightest taint of evil.
292. Even falsehood is of the nature of truth if it bringeth forth unmixed good.
293. Bear not false witness against thy neighbour : for thy own conscience will burn thee when thou hast lied.
294. Behold the man whose heart is free from falsehood: he reigneth in the hearts of all.
295. Behold the man whose heart is fixed in truthfulness: he is greater than the austere and greater than he that distributeth alms.
​296. There is no greater renown for a man than the renown that he is a stranger unto falsehood : such a man obtaineth every blessing without mortifying the body.
297. If a map can live without ever uttering a falsehood, all other virtue is superfluous unto him.
298. The cleanliness of the body belongeth unto water : but the purity of the heart is proved by truthfulness.
299. The worthy regard not all other light as light : it is only the light of truth that they look upon as a veritable illumination.
300. Many things have I seen in this world: but of all the things that I have seen, there is nothing that is higher than truth.
# The Kural or the Maxims of Tiruvalluvar/Chapter 33

CHAPTER 33
NON-KILLING
321. The greatest of virtues is non-killing: killing bringeth in its train every other sin.
322. To divide one's bread with the needy and to abstain from killing: this is the greatest of all the commandments of all the prophets.
323. The greatest virtue of all is non-killing : truthfulness cometh only next.
324. What is the good way? It is the path that taketh thought how it may save even the smallest of creatures from being killed.
325. Among all that have renounced this life with its fears of ill, the chiefest is he that reverenceth all life for fear of killing any.
​326. Behold the man who hath taken the vow of non-killing : Death that eateth away all life maketh no inroads into his days.
327. Take not away from any living thing the life that is sweet unto all, even if it be to save thine own.
328. They may say, Sacrifices gain for a man many blessings : but to the pure in heart the blessings that are earned by killing are an abomination.
329. Those who live by slaying are likened by the discriminating to eaters of carrion.
330. Behold the man whose putrid body is festering with ulcerous sores : he must have been a shedder of blood in the past, say the wise.

THE QUALIFICATIONS OF THE PRINCE
381. He is a lion among princes who is well endowed in respect of the six things : troops, population, substance, council, alliances, and fortifications.
382. Four qualities should never be wanting in the prince, namely, courage, liberality, wisdom, and energy.
383. Behold the men that are destined to rule the earth : the three virtues, alertness, learning, and decision, leave them not.
384. The prince shall not fail in virtue and shall abolish unrighteousness: he shall guard his honour jealously but shall not sin against the laws of valour.
385. The prince shall know how to develop the resources of his kingdom and how to enrich his treasury : how to preserve his wealth and how to spend it worthily.
​386. If the prince is accessible to all his subjects and is never harsh of word, his kingdom will be esteemed above every other.
387. Behold the prince who can give with grace and rule with love : his name will fill the world.
388. Behold the prince who administereth impartial justice and protecteth his subjects: he shall be called a God among men.

The Lone Star Camp Song.
As Sung by Joe Cook,
The American Comedian.
Copy Right secured.
Our Rifles are ready, and ready we are, Neither fear, care, or sorrow in this Company, Our Rifles are ready to welcome the foe, So onward brave boys, we go, To South Carolina, the land where the bright lone star, Leads to beauty in peace, and glory in war.
With aim never erring, we strike down the Union like deers, We chill the false heart of the Union men with fear, The blood of the Americans flows full in the veins, Of the lads who will lord over Carolina’s plains, O’er the plains where the breeze from the South was the flowers, As we press those we love in their sweet Summer bowers.
One pledge to our loves, when the battle is done, We shall share the broad lands our rifles have won, No tear on the cheek, should we sleep with the dead, There are brave ones to follow who will still go ahead, Who will still go-ahead with the bright lone star, That leads to beauty in peace, or glory in war.

CHAPTER FIRST Burzee
HAVE you heard of the great Forest of Burzee? Nurse used to sing of it when I was a child. She sang of the big tree-trunks, standing close together, with their roots intertwining below the earth and their branches intertwining above it; of their rough coating of bark and queer, gnarled limbs; of the bushy foliage that roofed the entire forest, save where the sunbeams found a path through which to touch the ground in little spots and to cast
The Forest of Burzee is mighty and grand and awesome to those who steal beneath its shade. Coming from the sunlit meadows into its mazes it seems at first gloomy, then pleasant, and afterward filled with never-ending delights.
For hundreds of years it has flourished in all its magnificence, the silence of its inclosure unbroken save by the chirp of busy chipmunks, the growl of wild beasts and the songs of birds.
Yet Burzee has its inhabitants—for all this. Nature peopled it in the beginning with Fairies, Knooks, Ryls and Nymphs. As long as the Forest stands it will be a home, a refuge and a playground to these sweet immortals, who revel undisturbed in its depths.
Civilization has never yet reached Burzee. Will it ever, I wonder?

VENI CREATOR SPIRITUS.
Come, O Creator Spirit blest,
And in our souls take up Thy rest;
Come with Thy grace and heavenly aid,
To fill the hearts which Thou hast made.
​Great Paraclete, to Thee we cry,
O highest gift of God most high,
O Fount of life, O Fire of love,
And sweet anointing from above.
Thou in Thy sevenfold gifts art known;
Thee finger of God's hand we own;
The promise of the Father Thou,
Who dost the tongue with pow'r endow.
Our senses kindle from above,
And make our hearts o'erflow with love;
With patience firm and virtue high
The weakness of our flesh supply.
Drive far from us the foe we dread,
And grant us Thy true peace instead;
So shall we not, with Thee for guide,
Turn from the path of life aside.
O, may Thy grace on us bestow
The Father and the Son to know,
And Thee through endless times confessed
Of Both th' eternal Spirit blest.
​All glory, while the ages run,
Be to the Father, and the Son
Who rose from death; the same to Thee,
O Holy Ghost, eternally.
