CHARITY. 
The truly generous is the truly wise; 
And he who loves not others lives unblest. 
— Home. 
In necessary things unity; in doubtful things liberty; in all things 
— St. Augustine. 
CONSTANCY. 
When all things have their trial you shall find, 
.Nothing is constant but a virtuous mind. 
—Shirley. 
CONTENTMENT. 
Be content with thy lot, 
Though it inay be small; 
Each must have his share. 
One cannot have it all. 
— Anon. 
Some friends may wish thee happiness, 
Some others wish thee wealth; 
My wish for thee is better far— 
Contentment blest with health. 
— Anon. 
We shed too many tears, 
And sigh too sore, and yield us up to woe, 
As if God had not planned the way we go 
And counted out our years. 
Can we not be content 
And lift our foreheads from the ignoble dust 
Of these complaining lives, and wait with trust 
Fulfilling Heaven’s intent? 
Must we have wealth and power, 
Fame, beauty, all things ordered to our mind ? 
May, all these things leave happiness behind! 
Accept the sun and shower.
