IF thou wouldst live unruffled by care, Let not the past torment thee e'er;If any loss thou hast to rue, Act as though thou wert born anew;Inquire the meaning of each day, What each day means itself will say;In thine own actions take thy pleasure, What others do, thou'lt duly treasure;Ne'er let thy breast with hate be supplied, And to God the future confide.
