 person should prepare for himself a reward and a punishment that he will inflict on himself. if he obeys well and submits easily to what he commands of accepting virtues and abandoning vices if you have a noble character or a noble virtue he will reward him by praising him abundantly bringing him joy and enabling him to enjoy some of his pleasures. but if he obeys badly refuses to obey him and runs wild and does not let his reins loose and prefers vices over virtues if you have a vile character or commit a despicable act he will punish him by blaming and blaming him abundantly bringing upon him severe regret and denying him his pleasures until he yields to him.
