It is to have no trouble.
It is never to be fretted or vexed,
irritable or sore; to wonder at nothing that is done to me,
to feel nothing done against me.
It is to be at rest when nobody praises me,
and when I am blamed or despised, it is to have
a blessed home in myself where I can go in and
shut the door and be at peace, as in a deep sea of calmness,
when all around and about is seeming trouble.”
