Examine, Observe, Look at, Maintain, put in order
ABOVE ALL ELSE / WITH ALL DILIGENCE
Guard with a double guard, look at narrowly, precisely
Be sure the treasury is kept safe
Keep with all keeping; a double guard; above all other guarding
WHY GIVE THE HEART SO MUCH ATTNTION?
FOR IT IS THE WELLSPRING OF LIFE

It is the source of all of life!
