1.16.Fortitude Poem by SELLAMUTHU KANDASAMY

1.As land tolerates diggers
great does ridiculous.
2.Pardoning infinite harms good
forgetting betters it
3.Poorest poor deny guests
great bears idiots.
4.To be determined, preserve
Patience for ever
5.Impatients, disregarded but tolerants
prized with ornaments.
6.Intolerants enjoy a day
others suffer ever.
7.Though others did unbearable
better evade unrighteousness.
8.Succeed those impolite prides
by condoning nobility.
9.Bearing acrimonious words, pure
of the renounced.
10.Fasting ritualist, second best
bearing worthless words
