We are ruined, not by what VIC want. but by
what VIC think we do; therefore, never 60 abroad
in search Of your wants, II they be real wants,
they will come bone in search Of You; for he that
buys what he does not want, will soon want what
be cannot buy.

Merit Is often an obstacle TO fortune. and the
reason Is, because j. always produces two bad ef-
fec's, envy and fear. Envy 10 those who cannot
rise TO the same degree Of perfection, and fear in
those who are established, and who dread that by
advancing a man possessed of more abilities and
meI't than themselves. they may b. supplsnted.
