One of the most useful of human virtues is patience. To bear afflictions and every event which tends to disturb the mind, with calmness, denotes a highly improved understanding. There is no condition of human life which cherishes this virtue so much as marriage. It is easy, and promotes the highest degree of self approbation, to bear distress for the sake of those whom we love.
