The .xxix. Chapte.

A   He that is styfnecked and wyll not be refourmed, shal sodenly be destroied without any helpe Wher the rightuous haue the ouer h&abar;d the people are in prosperitye: but wher the vngodly beareth rule, ther the people mourne. Who so loueth wysdome, maketh his father a glad man: note but he þt; kepeth harlottes, sp&ebar;deth away þt; he hath. With true iudgment the kyng setteth vp the land, but if he be a man that taketh giftes, he turneth it vpsyde downe. Whoso flattereth hys neyghboure, layeth a nette for hys fete. The synne of the wycked is his owne snare, but the ryghtuons shall be glad and reioyse.

The rightuous consydereth the cause of þe; poore, but the vngodly regardeth no vnderstandynge. B   Wycked people brynge a cytye in decay, but wyse men sette it vp agayne. If a wyse man go to lawe wyth a foole (whether he deale wyth hym frendly or roughly) he getteth no rest. The bloude thyrstye hate the ryghtuous, but the iust note seke his soule.

A foole poureth out his spirit altogether, but a wyse man kepeth it in till afterwarde.

If a prynce delyte iu lyes, all his seruauntes are vngodly. The pore and the l&ebar;der mete together, C   the Lord lyghteneth both their eies The seate of the Kynge that faythfully iudgeth the poore, shall contynue sure for euermore. The rod and correction myuister wysdome, but if a chylde be not loked vnto, he bringeth his mother to shame. When the vngodly come vp, wyckednesse increaseth: but the rightuous shall se their fal. Nurtour thy sonne with correction, and he shall comforte the, yea he shall do the good at thyne herte. Wher no note Prophete is ther the people perysh: but wel is hym that kepeth the law. A seruaunte wyll not be the better for wordes for thoughe he vnderstande, yet wyll he not regarde them,

Yf thou seist a m&abar; that is hastye to speake vnaduysed, thou, mayest trust a foole more then hym. He that delicately bringeth vp his seruaunt from a chyld, D   shall make hym hys master at length. An angrye man stereth vp stryfe, and he that beareth euell wyll in hys mynde, doeth muche euill. After pryde commeth a fal, note but a lowly spirit bringeth great worshippe. Who so kepeth companye wyth a thyefe, hateth hys owne soule: he heareth blasphemyes, and telleth it not fourth. He that feareth men, shall haue a fall: but whoso putteth his trust in the Lorde shall come to honoure. Manye there be that seke the Princes fauoure, but euery mans iudgement c&obar;meth from the Lorde. The ryghtuous abhorreth the vngodlye: but as for those that be in the ryght way, the wicked hate them.
