Do I not trust others, you ask? Would I not confide?

It is not a question of trusting others.

Speak of others only what you would speak in their presence,

And it is not a question of trusting others.

Speak only of your own business,

And it is not a question of trusting others.

Be one person to all people,

And it is not a question of trusting others.

Be upright, be only thy Self –

Trust in Destiny.
