17. From great antiquity forth they have known and possessed it
From great antiquity forth they have known and possessed it.
Those of the next level loved and praised it.
The next were in awe of it.
And the next despised it.
If you lack sincerity no one will believe you.
How careful she is with her precious words!
When her work is complete and her job is finished,
Everybody says: “We did it!”

What I read is, always be sincere!
You may be admired/appreciated/or reviled.
At the end, “You” know that you have been so!
No matter what others say!
