Chapter 46
Contentment

a
When the world is right with God
Horses retire to haul fertilizer on the fields

b
When the world is separate from God
Horses trample the fields equipped for cavalry

c
There is no sin greater than excessive desire
There is no disaster greater than discontentment
There is no misfortune greater than excessive greed

Thus, to know contentment is everlasting fulfillment
d
