Translation

The medicine for contentment is not prepared by natural things, and yet the natural remedy and comfort arises from it. It is the medicine of one dram; it should be mixed in the mind (/ heart) and be known intelligently (/ spiritually): Contentment, one dng weight; If I do not do this, what shall I do, one dng weight; It may be better from today till tomorrow, one dng weight; Perhaps it will be worse than this, one dng weight; Being content with this that has come to me, I shall be more at ease, one dng weight;

And if I am not content, the issue indeed would not be better, and I shall be more uneasy, one dng weight. One should put these drugs in the mortar of patience, pound them with the pestle of prayer, sift them with a silken sieve of tolerance, and everyday very early in the morning, put two spoonfuls in the mouth with the spoon of trust to the sacred beings (Yazata), and also drink the water of it can be done thereafter, then he becomes content without any doubt, because it is much more beneficial to both the body and the soul. Finished.
