Those powerful of us who are capable
To regulate the freaks of nature,
Nourishing their faculty of knowledge
By means of their serenity, and
All throughout life they abstain from
Employing that faculty in action,
They must be pronounced thus
To have also nourished their serenity
By means of their knowledge.

When the faculty of knowledge
And serenity thus blend together,
And they nourish each other, then
From the nature there come forth
Harmony and duly ordered method.
But once they try to rectify others,
While their own virtues are beclouded,
It is not worth to accede to them at all.
If a try is made so to accede to them,
They also will lose their true nature.
