For those that things that fortune holds sway
For those that things that fortune holds sway are :chattels, money, passion, positions;
they are weak; stifling, prone to perish and of uncertain future;
Seneca says, power, position, prosperity are all mortal, shifting , wavering, and of uncertain future;
whereas works of virtue are free and unsubdued;
virtues rise above fortune when it treats you kindly
virtues rise above adversity when it weighs you down
virtue overwhelms all pains, annoyances, and wrongs
