\r\n 1\u00a0<\/a><\/span>He that loveth his son causeth him oft to feel the rod, that he may have joy of him in the end. <\/div>
2\u00a0<\/a><\/span>He that chastiseth his son shall have joy in him, and shall rejoice of him among his acquaintance. <\/div>
3\u00a0<\/a><\/span>He that teacheth his son grieveth the enemy: and before his friends he shall rejoice of him. <\/div>
4\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Though his father die, yet he is as though he were not dead: for he hath left one behind him that is like himself. <\/div>
5\u00a0<\/a><\/span>While he lived, he saw and rejoiced in him: and when he died, he was not sorrowful. <\/div>
6\u00a0<\/a><\/span>He left behind him an avenger against his enemies, and one that shall requite kindness to his friends. <\/div>
7\u00a0<\/a><\/span>He that maketh too much of his son shall bind up his wounds; and his bowels will be troubled at every cry. <\/div>
8\u00a0<\/a><\/span>An horse not broken becometh headstrong: and a child left to himself will be wilful. <\/div>
9\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Cocker thy child, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he will bring thee to heaviness. <\/div>
10\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end. <\/div>
11\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Give him no liberty in his youth, and wink not at his follies. <\/div>
12\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Bow down his neck while he is young, and beat him on the sides while he is a child, lest he wax stubborn, and be disobedient unto thee, and so bring sorrow to thine heart. <\/div>
13\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Chastise thy son, and hold him to labour, lest his lewd behaviour be an offence unto thee. <\/div>
14\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Better is the poor, being sound and strong of constitution, than a rich man that is afflicted in his body. <\/div>
15\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Health and good estate of body are above all gold, and a strong body above infinite wealth. <\/div>
16\u00a0<\/a><\/span>There is no riches above a sound body, and no joy above the joy of the heart. <\/div>
17\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Death is better than a bitter life or continual sickness. <\/div>
18\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Delicates poured upon a mouth shut up are as messes of meat set upon a grave. <\/div>
19\u00a0<\/a><\/span>What good doeth the offering unto an idol? for neither can it eat nor smell: so is he that is persecuted of the Lord. <\/div>
20\u00a0<\/a><\/span>He seeth with his eyes and groaneth, as an eunuch that embraceth a virgin and sigheth. <\/div>
21\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Give not over thy mind to heaviness, and afflict not thyself in thine own counsel. <\/div>
22\u00a0<\/a><\/span>The gladness of the heart is the life of man, and the joyfulness of a man prolongeth his days. <\/div>
23\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Love thine own soul, and comfort thy heart, remove sorrow far from thee: for sorrow hath killed many, and there is no profit therein. <\/div>
24\u00a0<\/a><\/span>Envy and wrath shorten the life, and carefulness bringeth age before the time. <\/div>
25\u00a0<\/a><\/span>A cheerful and good heart will have a care of his meat and diet. <\/div>
