Chap. XXVI.
note
1 As snow in the summer, and rayne in the haruest: so is
glorie vndecent for a foole. note
2 As a birde flying to other places, & a sparow going whither
he list: so a curse vttered in vaine shal light vpon some man. note
3 A whippe for a horse, and a snaffle for an asse, and a rod on
the back of the vnwise. note
4 Answer not a foole according to his follie, lest thou be
made like to him. note
5 Answer a foole according to his follie, lest he seme to
himself to be wise.
6 Lame of feete, and drinking iniquitie, he that sendeth
wordes by a foolish messenger. note
7 As a lame man hath fayre legges in vaine: so a parable is vndecent
in the mouth of fooles. note
8 As he that casteth a stone into the heape of Mercurie: so he
that geueth honour to the vnwise. note
-- --
9 As if a thorne should grow in the hand of the drunkard: so
a parable in the mouth of fooles.
10 Iudgement determineth causes: and he that putteth a foole
to silence, apeaseth angers.
11 As a dog that returneth to his vomite, so the vnwise that reiterateth
his follie.
12 Hast thou sene a man seeme to himselfe wise? the foole shal
haue hope rather then he.
13 The slothful sayth: A lyon is in the way, and a lyonesse in the
iourneis:
14 as a doore turneth on his hinge so the slothful in
his bed.
15 The slothful hideth his hand vnder the armehole, and is
greeued if he turneth it to his mouth.
16 The slothful seemeth wiser to himselfe, then seuen men
speaking sentences.
17 As he that taketh a dog by the eares, so he that passeth by
impatient, and medleth with an other mans brawle. note
18 As he is hurtful that shooteth arrowes, and speares vnto
death:
19 so a man, that hurteth his frende fraudulently: and
when he is taken with al sayth: I did it in iest.
20 When wood fayleth, the fire shal be extinguished: and the
whisperer taken away, brawles cease.
21 As coles to burning coles, and wood to fire, so an angrie man
rayseth brawles.
22 The wordes of the whisperer as it were simple, and the same
come to the inmost partes of the bellie. note
23 As if thou wouldest adorne an earthen vessel with drossie
siluer, so swelling lippes ioyned with a most wicked hart.
24 An enemie is perceiued by his lippes, when he shal handle
deceites in his hart.
25 When he shal submit his voyce, beleue him not: because
there are seuen mischiefes in his hart.
26 He that couereth hatred fraudulently, his malice shal be reuealed
in the councel.
27 He that diggeth a pit, shal fal into it: and he that rolleth a
stone, it shal returne to him.
28 A deceitful tongue loueth not truth, and a slipper mouth
worketh ruines.
