/-/I suppose*D1 [DOyou all, my boys,=D--02 are looking*-

(for some sort )(of success )(in life; )]/C/it is*A1 right

[DSthat you should;*- ]/C/but what are*N1 your notions (of

success? )/F/*ETo get=IPN181 rich as soon as possible, (without

regard )(to the means )[JR(by which )your wealth is acquired?*P

]/-/There is*N1 no true success (in that: )/C/[ALwhen you have

gained*D1 millions, ]you may yet be*A1 poorer than [ARwhen you

had*D1 nothing; ]/C/and it is*N1 that same reckless ambition

[JRwhich has brought*D1 many a bright and capable boy, not (to

great estate )(at last, )but (to miserable failure and disgrace;

)not (to a palace, )but (to a prison. )]/-/Wealth rightly got and

rightly used,=SAP060 rational enjoyment,=A--02 power,=A--01

fame,=A--01 -- these are*N1 all worthy objects (of ambition;

)/C/but they are*N1 not the highest objects, /C/and you may

acquire*D1 them all (without achieving=GOP031 )true success.

/c/But [ALif, [ALwhatever you seek,*D1 ]you put*D1 good will

(into all your actions, )]you are*A1 sure (of the best success

)(at last; )/C/for [ALwhatever else you gain*D1 or miss,*D1 ]you

are building*D1 up a noble and beautiful character, [JRwhich

is*N1 not only the best (of possessions )(in this world, )but

also is*N1 about all [JRyou can expect*D0 to take=IDO070 (with

you )(into the next. )]]/-/I say,*D1 good will (in all your

actions. )/-/You are*A1 not simply to be=IAJ072 kind and helpful

(to others; )/C/but, [ALwhatever you do,*D1 ]give*D1 honest,

earnest purpose (to it. )/-/Thomas is put*P (by his parents )to

learn=IRO041 a business. /c/But Thomas does not like*D1 to

apply=IDO051 himself very closely. !!!!!!!!
