Sweet are the uses of adversity, Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, Wears yet a precious jewel in his head; And this our life, exempt from public haunt, Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, Sermons in stones, and good in everything.

逆境自有甘美的益处：它像丑陋有毒的蟾蜍，头上却藏着珍宝。我们远离尘嚣的生活，能在树木中听见言语，在流水中读到书卷，在石头中发现教诲，在万物中看见美好。
