| 1 | To be angry about trifles is mean and childish; to rage and be furious is brutish; and to maintain perpetual wrath is akin to the practice and temper of devils; but to prevent and suppress rising resentment is wise and glorious, is manly and divine. | Anger |

| 3 | We cannot be more sensitive to pleasure without being more sensitive to pain. | Pleasure |
| 4 | Earth, thou great footstool of our God, who reigns on high; thou fruitful source of all our raiment, life, and food; our house, our parent, and our nurse. | Earth |
| 5 | There is a land of pure delight where Saints and Mortals reign; Infinite day excludes the night and pleasures banish pain. There everlasting spring abides, and never withering flowers; Death like a narrow star divides This Heav'nly land from ours. | Heaven |
| 6 | How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour, And gather honey all the day From ev'ry op'ning flow'r! How skilfully she builds her cell! How neat she spreads the wax! And labours hard to store it well With the sweet food she makes. In works of labour or of skill I would be busy too: For Satan finds some mischief still For idle hands to do. In books, or work, or healthful play, Let my first years be past, That I may give for every day Some good account at last. | Idleness |
