Good Fortune Is A God Among Men,

Of Prosperity Mortals Can Never Have Enough.

The Unenvied Man Is Not Enviable.

It Is Through Suffering That Learning Comes.

If You Are Not Envied, You Are Not Enviable.

Alas For The Affairs Of Men! When They Are Fortunate You Might Compare Them To A Shadow; And If They Are Unfortunate, A Wet Sponge With One Dash Wipes The Picture Away.
