Where in this wide world can man
find nobility without pride,
friendship without envy,
or beauty without vain?
Here, where grace is served with muscle
and strength by gentleness confined
Her serves without servility;
he has fought without enmity.
There is nothing so powerful,
nothing less violent.
There is nothing so quick,
nothing more patient.
