And the discipline and trouble of this life were not designed as a means for our attaining virtue which was foreign to our nature, but to enable us to cast aside the evil that was foreign and contrary to our nature: just as on laboriously removing from steel the rust which is not natural to it but acquired through neglect, we reveal the natural brightness of the steel.
Chinese[zh]
这个生命的锻炼和烦扰并不是作为一种方法,以取得那与我们性格无关的德性,而是使我们能够抛弃那与我们性格无关而且相反的邪恶;正如用力擦去钢上的锈(不是钢本来有的,而是由疏忽所致 ) , 就可显出钢本来的光亮一样。
