And which, almsmen, yokeable principles, which yoke?
Form, almsmen, a yokeable principle; what there the desire and passion is, therefor there the yoke. Feeling, almsmen, a yokeable principle; what there the desire and passion is, therefor there the yoke. Inclinations, almsmen, a yokeable principle; what there the desire and passion, therefor there the yoke.
