CHAPTER XIV.

FACULTIES.

Remember at anything that shall befall thee to turn to thyself and seek

what faculty thou hast for making use of it. If thou see a beautiful

person, thou wilt find a faculty for that--namely, Self-mastery. If toil

is laid upon thee, thou wilt find the faculty of Perseverance. If thou

art reviled, thou wilt find Patience. And making this thy wont, thou

shalt not be carried away by the appearances.
