1. The pain that seems for ever to last
Will some day become a thing of the past.
2. Pleasure is sinful only when
It causes pain to others now and then .
3. Neither intense pleasure nor constant pain,
The body can for long sustain.
4. Joys and sorrows, great and small
Will melt some day beyond recall.
5. Tears may come when glad or sad;
But laughter never when things are bad.
6. Don’t try one’s grief to understand;
Just give a caring, friendly hand.
7. Rejoice this day the best you can;
Things may turn not be in morrow’s plan.
8. Joy and sorrow to the mind are bound:
Pleasure and pain in the body found.
9. Lust is heightened fantasies
Of thrills with bodies one only sees.
10. What we like to do, we do with pleasure;
What we have to do is done under pressure.
