Interpretation.

The joyous mood is infectious and brings success. But joy must be based on steadfastness if it is not to degenerate into uncontrolled mirth. Truth and strength must dwell in the heart, while gentleness is revealed in being with others. In this way one will assume the right attitude towards others and success will be achieved. Under certain circumstances, intimidation without gentleness may achieve something momentarily, but not for all time. When, on the other hand, the hearts of others are won by friendliness, they will be led to take all hardships upon themselves willingly, and if need be will not shun death itself, so great is the power of joy over us.
