Chap. XXX. note Chastisment of children is necessarie, and indulgence very dangerous. 14. Health is better then riches. 17. A trublesome life is worse then death. 22. Be not pensiue but chereful in mind.

1   He that loueth his soune, doth accustome him to stripes, that he may reioyce in his later end, and not grope after the doores of his neighboures.

2   He that teacheth his sonne, shal be praised in him, & in the middes of them of his houshold he shal glorie in him.

3   He that teacheth his sonne, doth cast

the enemie into emulation, and in the middes of his freindes he shal glorie in him.

4   His father is dead, & he is as it were not dead: for he hath left behind him the like to himself.

5   In his life he sawe and reioyced in him: in his death he was not made sorie, neither was he confounded before the enemies.

6   For he left a defender of his house against the enemies, & one that should render thanck to his freindes.

7    noteFor the soules of his sonnes he wil binde vp his woundes, & at euerie voice his bowels shal be trubled.

8   An vntamed horse becometh stubburne, and a dissolute childe wil become headie.

9   Pamper thy sonne, and he wil make thee afraid: play with him, and he wil make thee sorowful.

10   Laugh not with him, lest thou be sorie, and at the last note thy teeth shal be on edge.

11   Geue him not power in his youth, and contemne not his cogitations.

12   Curbe his necke in youth, and knock his sides whiles he is a childe, lest perhaps he be hardned, and beleeue thee not, and he shal be sorow of minde to thee.

13   Teach thy sonne, and worke in him, that thou offend not in his dishonestie.

14   Better is a poore man whole, and strong of force, then a rich man weake and scourged with miserie.

15   The note health of the soule in holines of iustice, is better then al gold and siluer: and a sound bodie, then infinite reuenewes.

16   There is no riches aboue the riches of the health of the bodie: and there is noe delight aboue the ioy of the hart.

17   Better is death then a bitter life: and euerlasting rest, then continual sicknes.

18   Good thinges hid in a mouth that is shut, are as messes of meates set about a graue.

19   What shal sacrifice profite an idol? for neither shal he eate, nor smel:

20   so he that is chased away of our Lord, beareth the rewardes of iniquitie:

21   seing with his eies, & groning, as an eunuch embracing a virgin and sighing.

22    noteGeue not heuines to thy soule, & afflict not thyself in thy counsel.

23   Ioyfulnes of the hart, this is the life of a man, and a treasure without defect of holines: and the ioy of a man is long life.

24   Haue mercie on thine owne soule, note pleasing God, and refraine: and comfort thy hart in his holines: and expel sorow far from thee.

25   For sorow hath killed manie, and there is noe profite in it.

26   Enuie and anger diminish the daies, and thought wil bring old age before the time.

27   A magnifical hart, is good in bankettes: for his bankettes are made diligently.
