________________
OF VAIN TRUST IN WEALTH, CATTLE
AND KIN
Verily I say Death carrieth off a man in the end as a lion carrieth off a buck. For him mother is no help, nor father, nor brother.
Therefore, ye yourself are without protection, and as ye are without protection, how can ye protect anybody else ?
Fool is he who thinketh that his wealth, cattle and kin will save him, or that he will save them. But they are of no help, no protection.
Riches help him not in this world nor in the other. Though he hath known the right path, he seeth it not for riches,
