The XI. Chapter.

A   Sende thy vytayles ouer the waters, and so shalt thou fynde th&ebar; after many yeares. Geue it awaye amonge seuen or eight, for thou knowest not what misery shal come vp&obar; earth. Wh&ebar; the cloudes are full, they poure out rayne vpon the earth. And wh&ebar; þe; tre falleth, (whether it be towarde the south or north) in what place so euer it fall, there it lyeth. He that regardeth þe; wynde, shal not sowe: and he that hath respecte vnto the cloudes, shal not reape. Now like as thou knowest not the waye of the wynde, ner how þe; bones are fylled in a mothers wombe: Euen so thou knowest not the workes of God, which is the workemaster of all.

B   Cease not thou therfore with thy handes to sowe thy sede, whether it be in þe; mornynge or in the euenynge: for thou knowest not whether this or that shall prospere, ∧ yf they both take, it is the better. The light is swete, ∧ a pleasaunt thinge is it for the eyes to loke vpon the Sonne. Yf a man lyue many yeares, and be glad in them all, let him remembre the dayes of darcknesse, which shalbe many: ∧ when they come, all thinges shalbe but vanite. Be glad then (O thou yonge man) in thy youth, and lat thine hert be mery in thy yonge dayes: folowe the wayes of thine owne hert, and the lust of thine eyes: but be thou sure, that God shal bringe the in to iudgment for all these thinges.
