The 1 fool. it wag stated feeds his appetite l but tae wise man feeds himself
 If c person feels that he ought rd rise up 10 better things and then fails i to carry out his noble impulses ae
 better life: next he Ieses this pows. ! of choice. and in the third place 1e learns to love that thing thai hs fer nerly hated.
