8
An horse not broken becometh headstrong: and a child left to himself will be wilful.
9
Cocker thy child, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he will bring thee to heaviness.
10
Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end.
11
Give him no liberty in his youth, and wink not at his follies.
12
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.
13
Chastise thy son, and hold him to labour, lest his lewd behaviour be an offence unto thee.
14
Better is the poor, being sound and strong of constitution, than a rich man that is afflicted in his body.
15
Health and good estate of body are above all gold, and a strong body above infinite wealth.
16
There is no riches above a sound body, and no joy above the joy of the heart.
17
Death is better than a bitter life or continual sickness.
18
Delicates poured upon a mouth shut up are as messes of meat set upon a grave.
