Not all sources of misery are overt ones, and inner sufferings are harder to manage: despite the rudder of our reason, we lose our way in turbulent seas.

Reason reminds Sorrow of the many gifts God has bestowed on us, from the natural beauties of the world (those burbling streams and twittering songbirds) to our own excellent achievements.
