Infinite wisdom

more than I shall ever know

disgorging knowledge

do not think less of yourself,

think of yourself less.

Question its candor

only to regret mistakes

only to master

be a simple individual

liable to err like any other

fellow mortal. Own, however,

the humility enough

to confess my errors

and to retrace my steps.

Dynasties of words

occult phrases and morals

Cleansing the conscience

the solid foundation of all virtues.

Innately rooted

foremost, endless, adhered

in debt to her side

the first test of a truly great man.
