An inspired passage

be patient(Don't be impatient, wait for a while.)

Good work is not duly awarded nor bad work punished.

regret to have made your acquaintance so late

talk irresponsibly

benefit others at the expense of oneself

left over rivers and remains of mountains

keep repeating one's views

external things

divine stratagem

there is something in the wind

Shadow and shadow

delirious(wander; be mentally disturbed)

consecutive(remain the same all along)

redresser l'échine(s'enhardir)

part for ever(part never to meet again)

There is general peace and the crops are abundant.

leak from above and be wet down below

appear calm and at ease(be one's own man)

When one is covered with lice, one doesn't itch.
