21
What person who lives as a philosopher by the whole rule of philosophy, and trusts in God,
22
and knows that it is blessed to endure any suffering for the sake of virtue, would not be able to overcome the emotions through godliness?
23
For only the wise and courageous are masters of their emotions.
