In all thy need, be thou possest <br />Still with a well prepared breast; <br />Nor let the shackles make thee sad; <br />Thou canst but have what others had. <br />And this for comfort thou must know, <br />Times that are ill won't still be so: <br />Clouds will not ever pour down rain; <br />A sullen day will clear again. <br />First, peals of thunder we must hear; <br />When lutes and harps shall stroke the ear.<br /><br />Robert Herrick<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/good-precepts-or-counsel/
