8.77

Feasting in ease and comfort, the general fashion grew prouder and more extravagant by the day;
One must take advantage of peace and prosperity to snip the sprouts of disaster.
Therefore, our gate increases simplicity and plainness,
Just hoping that the world will bring an end to luxurious vanity.
