From Ali Ben Abu Taleb

    By Ralph Waldo Emerson



    He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare,
    And he who has one enemy will meet him everywhere.


    On two days it steads not to run from thy grave,
    The appointed, and the unappointed day;
    On the first, neither balm nor physician can save,
    Nor thee, on the second, the Universe slay.
