546. Ausnahmsweise eitel. - Der für gewöhnlich Selbstgenugsame ist ausnahmsweise eitel und für Ruhm und Lobsprüche empfänglich, wenn er körperlich krank ist. In dem Maasse, in welchem er sich verliert, muss er sich aus fremder Meinung, von Aussen her, wieder zu gewinnen suchen.

546. Exceptionnellement vaniteux. Celui qui se suffit ordinairement à lui-même devient exceptionnellement vaniteux et sensible à la gloire et aux louanges lorsqu'il est physiquement malade. À mesure qu'il se perd, il doit chercher à se reconquérir dans l'opinion d'autrui, depuis l'extérieur.
