79. Itis difficult to make dissension amongst the virtuous— 
but it is easy to reconcile them—low people can easily be sepa- 
rated, but difficulty reconciled. See what a difference there is 
between the sandal-tree, and the coal made of its wood 
Though a virtuous man decline for awhile, yet, like the 
increasing moon, he rises again—if a low man once is decayed 
he will be extinguished, like a lamp. 
1. Wealth, to a low man, is a cause of pride,—to a virtu- 
ous man it is that of gentleness (or, humbleness). The fox- 
born, when he has filled his belly, behaves proudly, the lion, 
when his belly is full takes his repose.
