also said do not trust your secrets other than in vour heart<br />

feelings at one time because if you do he will return with<br />

hostility, also stay away from tyrannies because it wastes<br />

magnanimity and honor and manners, also use love and<br />

refuse the injustices so you will not surrender to evil and<br />

health will last, use justice you will gain continuous love,<br />

in hand, do not waste your bodies and soul or you would<br />

regret loosing them in bad times. Be aware of this reader<br />
