This  cleverly-worded  enigma  won  the
praise  of  all  the  company,  but  since  it
seemed  to  be  beyond  the  power  of  any-
one to  solve  it,  Lionora  was  requested
to  divulge  its  meaning  ;  whereupon  she

Everyone  was  pleased  with  the  inter-

mended it  highly.  The  Signora  having

THE  FOURTH  FABLE.


**resignation_to_god **
We must conform ourselves to the will of God, not only in
things contrary to us which come directly from God, such as
loss of health, desolation of spirìt, loss of relatives or posses-
sions ; but even in those ills which come from Him indirectly,
such as slanders, slights, injustices, and ali other kinds of per-
secution. And we should remember, that when we are injured
by any one, in our goods or our honour, that God does not will



202 ^xtpwcatiùn for 9eat||

the sin of him who injures us, but that He rightly wills our
poverty and our humiliation. It is certain that whatever hap-
pens, does so by the Divme will. " I forni the light, and create
darkness : I make peace, and create eviL" (Isa. xlv. 7.) The
Preacher had said before, " Prosperity and adversity, life and
death, poverty and riches, come of the Lord." (Ecclus. xi. 14.)
In short, ali things come from God, those that are good and
those that are evil.
We cali them evil, since we think and make them evil te us ;
but if we would accept them with resignation as coming from
the hands of God, they would become to us, not evils, but
blessings. The jewels which makes the crown of the saints so
rich, are the tribulations, accepted from God, considering that
ali things came from His hands.

**DanteRapture_2023_001 **
74.  Novellamente,  'most  recently,'  'latest.'  —  Dante  is  not  sure  whether  he
took  his  body  with  him  to  Heaven,  of  left  it  behind.  St.  Paul  expresses  the  same
doubt  with  regard  to  his  own  experience,  2  Cor.  xii,  2-4:  '.  .  .  And  I  knew
such  a  man  (whether  in  the  body,  or  out  of  the  bod}',  I  cannot  teli;  God  know-
eth;)  How  that  he  was  caught  up  into  paradise,  and  heard  unspeakable  words,
which  it  is  not  lawful  for  a  man  to  utter.'  St.  Augustine  {De  Genesi  ad  Litteram,
XII,  iii-vi)  and  St.  Thomas  discuss  the  question,  but  leave  it  undecided.  The
poet  considers  his  rapture  as  similar  in  kind  to  St.  Paul's,  and  therefore  repeats
St.  Paul's  words.  In  the  following  narrative  Dante  seems  to  think  of  himself  as
stili  in  the  flesh,  although  he  ultimately  sees  God.  Whether  St.  Paul  actually
beheld  God  or  not  is  a  mattar  on  which  theologians  have  disagreed,  St.  August-
ine and  St.  Thomas  holding  the  affirmative  opinion.  Cf.  Exod.  xxxiii,  20:  'Thou
canst  not  see  my  face:  for  no  man  shall  see  me,  and  live.'

76.  Rota:  the  revolution  of  the  heavens.  —  Sempiterni,  'makest  eternai.'

77.  Desiderato,  'by  being  desired.'  The  swift  motion  of  the  Primum  Mobile,
the  outermost  sphere  of  the  material  universe,  is  due  to  the  eagerness  of  every
one  of  its  parts  to  come  into  contact  with  every  part  of  God's  own  Heaven,  the
Empyrean;  and  the  Primum  Mobile  imparts  its  revolution  to  ali  the  heavens
within  it.   Cf.  Conv.,  II,  iv,  19-27.  —  Atteso,  'attentive.'

78.  'The  harmony  which  thou  dost  attune  and  modulate'  is  the  harmony  of
the  spheres,  imagined  by  Pythagoras,  derided  by  Aristotle,  and  described  by
Cicero  in  the  Somnium  Scipionis  {De  Republica,  VI,  xi).


**diamond_exchange_naples **
This  worthy  man  left  his  shop  for  the  three
days  that  I  spent  in  Naples,  nor  ever  quitted
my  company,  but  showed  me  many  admir¬
able  monuments  of  antiquity  in  the  city  and
its  neighbourhood.  Moreover,  he  took  me
to  pay  my  respects  to  the  Viceroy  of  Naples,
who  had  let  him  know  that  he  should  like
to  see  me.  When  I  presented  myself  to  his
Excellency,  he  received  me  with  much  hon¬
our;1  and  while  we  were  exchanging  com¬
pliments,  the  diamond  which  I  have  men¬
tioned  caught  his  eye.  He  made  me  show  it
him,  and  prayed  me,  if  I  parted  with  it,  to
give  him  the  refusal.  Having  taken  back  the
stone,  I  offered  it  again  to  his  Excellency,
adding  that  the  diamond  and  I  were  at  his
service.  Then  he  said  that  the  diamond
pleased  him  well,  but  that  he  should  be  much
better  pleased  if  I  were  to  stay  with  him;
he  would  make  such  terms  with  me  as  would
cause  me  to  feel  satisfied.  We  spoke  many
words  of  courtesy  on  both  sides;  and  then
coming  to  the  merits  of  the  diamond,  his
Excellency  bade  me  without  hesitation  name
the  price  at  which  I  valued  it.  Accordingly
I  said  that  it  was  worth  exactly  two  hundred
crowns.  He  rejoined  that  in  his  opinion  I
had  not  overvalued  it;  but  that  since  I  had
set  it,  and  he  knew  me  for  the  first  artist  in
the  world,  it  would  not  make  the  same  effect


when  mounted  by  another  hand.  To  this  I
said  that  I  had  not  set  the  stone,  and  that  it
was  not  well  set;  its  brilliancy  was  due  to
its  own  excellence;  and  that  if  I  were  to
mount  it  afresh,  I  could  make  it  show  far
better  than  it  did.  Then  I  put  my  thumb-nail
to  the  angles  of  its  facets,  took  it  from  the
ring,  cleaned  it  up  a  little,  and  handed  it  to
the  Viceroy.  Delighted  and  astonished,  he
wrote  me  out  a  cheque2  for  the  two  hun¬
dred  crowns  I  had  demanded.

10.  Prostration  and  deliriam  have  in  general  eiisted  when  the  inflammatioo
occnpied  the  summit  of  the  lung  ;  this  coincidence  was  of  mach  more  frequent
occarrence  than  in  pnearoonia  of  the  base.
11.  As  to  the  treatment  of  pneamonia,  when  it  is  franehemeni  imjlammaioirep
repeatcd  blood-letting,  according  to  the  formala  of  M.  BouWoMd,  formed  its
basìs.  There  were  only  two  deaths  in  55  cases  ;  and  the  duration  ojf  the  dtaease
was  incontestably  shortened.
12.  Blisters  were  rarely  usefal  in  adulta;  occaaionally  in  children;  alwaysin

M.  Rttffer,  in  reporting  opon  the  memoir  of  M.  PeUetam,  very  properly  shewed
that  the  question  of  the  statistica!  or  arithmetical  history  of  pneumonia,  or  of
any  other  disease,  although  apparently  very  si m  pie  if  deduced  from  an  ampie
Dumber  of  cases,  contains  varioas  dementa  which  require  to  be  attended  to  with
the  greatest  care.
For  in  troth  pnenmonia  is  not  the  same  malady  in  children  as  it  is  in  adulta
and  in  old  persons  :  and  again,  when  it  prevails  cpidemically,  it  is  in  many  rea-
pects  very  different  from  that  forro  which  occurs  in  a  plethorìc  peraon  after  ex-
posore  to  cold.  It  is  necessary  also  to  talee  account  of  secondary  pneumoniaa,
of  bilious  complications,  and  of  a  roultitude  of  other  circumstances,  before  one
can  fairly  draw  any  conclusions  of  general  application. — Gaiette  Medicale,

### Analysis ###
L'utente chiede come l'indole indolente di una persona influenzasse il loro ruolo nel governo durante un periodo storico specifico. Per rispondere a questa domanda, è necessario esaminare i testi forniti per identificare riferimenti ad aspetti della natura indolente e del ruolo governativo. I testi includono narrazioni letterarie, riflessioni religiose e documenti storici che potrebbero offrire spunti utili.

### Answer ###
Durante il periodo storico in questione, la natura indolente di una persona poteva avere un impatto significativo sul loro ruolo nel governo. Una delle caratteristiche principali dell'indole indolente è la rilassatezza e l'incapacità di prendere decisioni rapidamente. Questo tipo di carattere potrebbe non essere adeguato per un ambiente politico dinamico e richiede molta energia mentale e fisica.

In un contesto religioso, come si osserva nella "resignation to god," si sottolinea l'importanza di accettare le avversità con rassegnazione, considerandole come provvidenza divina. Questo atteggiamento può suggerire una certa passività nei confronti degli eventi, cosa che potrebbe non essere conveniente in un ambiente governativo impegnato<ref name="resignation_to_god">"We must conform ourselves to the will of God, not only in things contrary to us which come directly from God, such as loss of health, desolation of spirìt, loss of relatives or possessions; but even in those ills which come from Him indirectly, such as slanders, slights, injustices, and ali other kinds of persecution."</ref>.

Nel contesto delle relazioni internazionali, come dimostrato dall'episodio descritto nel "diamond exchange naples," i leader dovevano essere pronti a negoziati veloci e decisioni rapide per mantenere le loro posizioni e gli accordi<ref name="diamond_exchange_naples">"Then he said that the diamond pleased him well, but that he should be much better pleased if I were to stay with him; he would make such terms with me as would cause me to feel satisfied."</ref>. La natura indolente, che potrebbe ritardare le decisioni, potrebbe quindi compromettere la capacità di gestire situazioni urgenti e impegnative.

Inoltre, nella "pneumo_study_001," si evidenzia come la frequenza delle inspirazioni possa indicare il grado e la gravità di una malattia, suggerendo che una certa attività e reattività siano essenziali per diagnosticare e trattare correttamente una condizione medica<ref name="pneumo_study_001">"The frequency of the inspirations has seeroed to measore very eiactiy the degree of the disease, and to indicate ita gravity."</ref>. In analogia, nel governo, una certa attività e capacità di reazione sono fondamentali per gestire efficacemente le situazioni.

Infine, nella "fourth fable" si sottolinea l'importanza dell'energia e della capacità di lavorare con altre persone per raggiungere gli obiettivi comuni<ref name="night_the_fourth_fable">"Everyone was pleased with the interpretation of this clever enigma and commended it highly."</ref>. Un leader indolente potrebbe non essere in grado di stimolare e coordinare l'energia delle persone sotto di lui, limitando così la produttività e l'efficacia del governo.

In conclusione, la natura indolente di una persona può influenzare negativamente il loro ruolo nel governo, limitando la reattività, l'efficienza e la capacità di prendere decisioni rapide.
