Calcutta nr. 20

If there is this complaint at the hands of anyone
And if at his hands there is an end of possessing your heart (in comfort)
Take heed that you be not entirely engrossed about this desire
The bad (you know) about yourself is badness enough.

Thompson 1898 - 339 n
If crust you have from any hand, be it so!
And if abused you've riches at command, then be it so!
Beware lest you in gain become engrossed!
Self freed from evil, come adversity, then be it so!
