2Let another man prayse thee, and not thine owne mouth: a stranger, and not thine owne lips.
3A stone is heauie, and the sand weightie: but a fooles wrath is heauier then them both.
4Anger is cruell, and wrath is raging: but who can stand before enuie?
5Open rebuke is better then secret loue.
6The wounds of a louer are faithful, and the kisses of an enemie are pleasant.
7The person that is full, despiseth an hony combe: but vnto the hungry soule euery bitter thing is sweete.
8As a bird that wandreth from her nest, so is a man that wandreth from his owne place.
9As oyntment and perfume reioyce the heart, so doeth the sweetenes of a mans friend by hearty counsell.
10Thine owne friend and thy fathers friend forsake thou not: neither enter into thy brothers house in the day of thy calamitie: for better is a neighbour that is neere, then a brother farre off.
