Passions, desires, and fears, is more a king.

Let to-morrow take care of to-morrow,
Leave things of the future to fate;
What's the use to read more

Let to-morrow take care of to-morrow,
Leave things of the future to fate;
What's the use to anticipate sorrow?
Life's troubles come never too late.

Will fortune never come with both hands full,
But write her fair words still in foulest letters?

Such are the poor, in health--or else a feast
And takes away the stomach-- such are the rich,
That have abundance, and enjoy it not.
