Chap. XVIII.


1   He seeketh occasions that wil depart from a frend: he shal euer be subiect to reproch. note


2   A foole receiueth not the wordes of prudence: vnlesse thou say those thinges which are in his hart. note


3   The impious when he shal come into the depth of sinnes, contemneth: but ignominie and reproch folow him. note


4   Deepe water wordes from the mouth of a note man: and a streame ouerflowing the fountaine of wisdom. note


5   To accept the person of the impious in iudgement is not good, that thou decline from the truth of iudgement. note


6   The lippes of a foole mingle him with strife: and his mouth prouoketh brawles. note


7   The mouth of a foole is his destruction: and his lippes are the ruine of his soule. note

8   The wordes of the duble tongued, as it were simple: and the same come euen to the inner part of the bellie. note

8   Feare casteth downe the slothful: and the soules of the effeminate shal be hungrie. note


9   He that is soft and dissolute in his worke, is the brother of him that destroyeth his owne workes. note


10   A most strong towre, the name of our Lord: the iust runneth to it, and shal be exalted. note


11   The substance of the rich man a citie of his strength: and as a strong wal compassing him about. note

-- --


12   Before he be broken, the hart of a man is exalted: and before he be glorified, it is humbled. note


13   He that answereth before he heare, sheweth him self to be a foole, and worthie of confusion. note


14   The spirit of a man vpholdeth his imbecilitie: but a spirit that is easie to be angrie who can susteyne? note


15   A wise hart shal possesse knowlege: and the eare of the wise seeketh doctrine. note


16   The gift of a man enlargeth his way, & maketh him roome before princes. note


17   The iust is first accuser of himself: his frend commeth, and shal search him. note


18   Lotte suppresseth contradictions, and betwen the mightie also it determineth. note


19   Brother that is holpen of brother, is as a strong citie: and iudgements are as the barres of cities.


20   Of the fruite of mans mouth his bellie shal be filled: and the ofsprings of his lippes shal fil him.


21   Death and life in the hand of the tongue: they that loue it, shal eate the fruites therof. note


22   He that hath found a good wife, hath found a good thing, and hath receiued a pleasure of our Lord. note


23   The poore speaketh with supplications, and the rich wil speake roughly.


24   A man amiable to societie, shal be more frendlie, then a brother. note
