" Ten strong things have
been created in the world. The rock is hard, but the iron cleaves it. The iron is hard, but the fire
softens it. The fire is hard, but the water quenches it. The water is strong, but the clouds bear it. The
clouds are strong, but the wind20 scatters them. The wind is strong, but the body bears it. The body is strong, but fright crushes it. Fright is strong, but wine banishes it. Wine is strong, but sleep works it
off. Death is stronger than all, and charity saves from death. "
