2S. People seek to find fault with the excellent, and not with the 

 low men. They look with astonishment to costly longings, but who 

 would do so to a fire-brand ? 



29. Not to be cheered up by praise ; not to be grieved by shame 

 -'-but to know well his own perfections, is the characteristic sign of 

 an excellent man. 



30. Those are no vain riches that are gotten by knowledge, 

 strength and skill. The dog and the cat, though they stand erect, 

 are living samples of impudence. 



31. It is the master's greatness, if his servants are in every 

 respect well satisfied. The embellishments put on a horse, are they 

 no ornaments for the master himself ?
