Sonnet: The Righteous Succeed Anyday

An honest man gets into trouble soon; Hard labor makes a man weary with ease; Yet, Honesty will always be a boon, Though troubles keep coming and may not cease. In world so bad, virtues are hard to keep, While vices catch all persons with great ease; Nevertheless, there is nothing to weep; The Tempter too, its labor will not cease. Then, how the Righteous cope on earth somehow? 'Tis God who guides and protects them from harm; For upright men, so great is Maker's love; His heart's a furnace of love truly warm. The man of virtues yet sees success fast; He needn't worry of future or the past.
