Note! The following is not a translation of the above verse, but merely an arbitrary extract of the English text.
...This is the medicine for sorrow, viz., not to think of it. By thinking of it, one can never dispel it; on the other hand, by thinking upon sorrow, one only enhances it. Mental griefs should be killed by wisdom...
