Those who dwell on the attractiveness of sensual enjoyments, and live with the senses unguarded, and are immoderate in eating, are slothful and weak in perseverance and will-power. Emotions overpower such persons as easily as the wind overpowers a weak tree.
One who foulness contemplates,
whose faculties are well-restrained,
in food does moderation know,
is full of faith, who’s diligent:
that one no Màra overthrows,
as wind does not a rocky mount.
