second_o that_o he_o always_o carry_v in_o mind_n what_o carefulness_n truth_n and_o diligence_n be_v require_v in_o his_o service_n towards_o his_o master_n the_o three_o how_o he_o himself_o may_v live_v with_o honesty_n and_o credit_n in_o time_n to_o come_v the_o conclusion_n which_o be_v a_o history_n very_o profitable_a and_o delightful_a for_o a_o youth_n to_o read_v and_o meditate_v there_o be_v a_o certain_a philosopher_n who_o lie_v on_o his_o death_n bed_n call_v his_o son_n &_o say_v these_o word_n unto_o he_o my_o son_n when_o i_o thy_o father_n be_o dead_a remember_v i_o by_o recompt_v often_o unto_o thyself_o this_o counsel_n which_o now_o i_o give_v unto_o thou_o first_o learn_v of_o the_o little_a sing_a bird_n who_o never_o miss_v in_o the_o morning_n and_o at_o evening_n but_o in_o their_o kind_n they_o yield_v forth_o their_o voice_n in_o praise_n and_o rejoice_v of_o their_o creator_n and_o maker_n and_o so_o see_v that_o thou_o also_o do_v never_o forget_v &_o neglect_v the_o same_o learn_v of_o the_o little_a emet_fw-fr that_o provide_v in_o the_o summer_n her_o food_n for_o the_o winter_n and_o so_o see_v that_o thou_o also_o in_o thy_o youth_n labour_n for_o thy_o maintenance_n against_o thy_o age_n learn_v of_o the_o cock_n that_o often_o watch_v and_o crow_v in_o the_o night_n both_o to_o preserve_v himself_o and_o his_o fellow_n from_o the_o wefall_v and_o so_o see_v that_o thou_o often_o watch_v and_o stretch_v forth_o thy_o voice_n in_o prayer_n by_o night_n unto_o god_n and_o in_o that_o quiet_a time_n study_n to_o prevent_v thy_o danger_n learn_v of_o the_o little_a dog_n who_o because_o he_o be_v the_o humble_a creature_n of_o all_o unto_o man_n be_v therefore_o most_o love_a and_o esteem_v &_o so_o see_v that_o thou_o evermore_o show_v thyself_o humble_a &_o lowly_a unto_o every_o man_n learn_v of_o the_o silk_n worm_n who_o as_o soon_o as_o she_o gather_v strength_n to_o yield_v any_o virtue_n from_o she_o never_o cease_v nor_o wax_v weary_a until_o she_o die_v and_o so_o see_v that_o thou_o also_o content_v not_o thyself_o to_o do_v thy_o duty_n to_o god_n and_o man_n for_o a_o time_n as_o most_o man_n do_v but_o still_o continue_v in_o virtue_n till_o thy_o very_a life_n end_n thus_o my_o son_n quoth_v he_o if_o thou_o will_v obey_v this_o my_o counsel_n it_o shall_v always_o go_v well_o with_o thou_o but_o contrariwise_o if_o thou_o forsake_v it_o &_o follow_v thy_o own_o imagination_n it_o will_v happen_v unto_o thou_o according_a to_o this_o example_n there_o dwell_v by_o a_o forest_n side_n a_o shepherd_n who_o to_o preserve_v his_o sheep_n from_o a_o lion_n which_o oftentimes_o have_v carry_v they_o away_o for_o a_o pray_v to_o his_o whelp_n prepare_v many_o snare_n and_o engine_n to_o destroy_v this_o lion_n but_o the_o old_a lion_n perceive_v these_o trap_n to_o be_v lay_v for_o he_o depart_v with_o his_o young_a one_o to_o another_o forest_n but_o when_o the_o whelp_n grow_v to_o be_v as_o big_a a_o lion_n as_o his_o father_n he_o thus_o say_v unto_o he_o father_n i_o think_v i_o can_v remember_v that_o this_o place_n be_v not_o the_o country_n where_o i_o be_v bear_v what_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o make_v thou_o to_o depart_v there_o hence_o say_v the_o old_a lion_n my_o son_n it_o be_v not_o indeed_o our_o native_a country_n but_o there_o be_v a_o little_a dwarf_n a_o man_n dwell_v in_o that_o place_n who_o for_o his_o subtle_a trap_n that_o he_o lay_v to_o take_v from_o i_o my_o life_n i_o fear_v and_o so_o flee_v therehence_a say_v the_o young_a lion_n and_o i_o swear_v by_o my_o beard_n that_o i_o will_v be_v revenge_v of_o he_o and_o will_v go_v now_o and_o tear_v he_o in_o piece_n with_o my_o tooth_n nay_o say_v the_o old_a lion_n do_v not_o so_o for_o if_o i_o myself_o can_v not_o possible_o get_v revenge_n against_o he_o thou_o can_v not_o in_o any_o sort_n do_v it_o but_o the_o young_a lion_n will_v not_o be_v rule_v by_o his_o father_n but_o go_v unto_o this_o forest_n where_o the_o shepherd_n dwell_v who_o find_v he_o within_o his_o house_n &_o the_o door_n shut_v call_v unto_o he_o and_o say_v o_o thou_o naughty_a &_o vile_a wretch_n why_o have_v thou_o so_o abuse_v my_o father_n as_o to_o drive_v he_o from_o his_o native_a country_n over_o which_o &_o all_o the_o beast_n thereof_o he_o reign_v as_o king_n i_o tell_v thou_o that_o i_o his_o son_n will_v be_v revenge_v of_o thou_o for_o make_v he_o so_o to_o loose_v his_o right_n the_o man_n be_v within_o his_o house_n stout_o answer_v i_o regard_v not_o a_o rush_n either_o thou_o or_o thy_o father_n but_o if_o thou_o once_o offer_v to_o enter_v within_o my_o door_n i_o have_v here_o both_o my_o staff_n and_o my_o axe_n to_o beat_v and_o to_o cut_v thou_o in_o piece_n the_o young_a lion_n be_v straight_o way_n amaze_v at_o his_o stout_a word_n and_o say_v then_o come_v thou_o forth_o and_o go_v with_o i_o to_o yonder_o moil_n and_o let_v he_o be_v judge_n betwixt_o thou_o &_o i_o whether_o thou_o have_v do_v my_o father_n wrong_v or_o not_o say_v the_o shepherd_n if_o thou_o will_v adjure_v and_o swear_v to_o do_v i_o no_o harm_n i_o will_v go_v with_o thou_o so_o the_o young_a lion_n swear_v unto_o he_o to_o do_v he_o no_o harm_n the_o man_n than_o lead_v the_o way_n unto_o the_o lion_n by_o those_o engine_n that_o he_o have_v prepare_v long_o before_o and_o anon_o the_o young_a lion_n fall_v into_o one_o of_o his_o pit_n and_o be_v entangle_v by_o his_o 2_o forefoot_n o_o say_v the_o lion_n help_v i_o for_o i_o know_v not_o what_o be_v this_o that_o have_v bind_v my_o foot_n very_o fast_o together_o say_v the_o shepherd_n i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o help_v thou_o but_o tarry_v thou_o here_o and_o i_o will_v go_v and_o call_v hither_o the_o moil_n but_o the_o lion_n as_o well_o as_o he_o can_v do_v yet_o get_v forth_o of_o the_o pit_n &_o go_v iump_v and_o leap_v to_o follow_v after_o the_o man_n by_o and_o by_o again_o he_o fall_v into_o another_o pit_n whereby_o his_o two_o hinder_a leg_n be_v also_o catch_v fast_o the_o shepherd_n now_o see_v he_o well_o tie_v and_o bind_v he_o than_o cut_v with_o his_o knife_n a_o good_a green_a staff_n &_o begin_v to_o lay_v blow_n strong_o upon_o the_o lion_n the_o lion_n then_o remember_v his_o father_n and_o say_v to_o the_o man_n o_o beat_v i_o not_o on_o my_o back_n nor_o my_o belly_n but_o rather_o beat_v i_o on_o my_o ear_n &_o on_o my_o heart_n because_o with_o my_o ear_n i_o will_v not_o hear_v the_o counsel_n of_o my_o father_n nor_o with_o my_o heart_n will_v not_o believe_v it_o when_o he_o say_v thou_o have_v more_o subtlety_n to_o prevail_v than_o i_o have_v strength_n so_o the_o man_n beat_v he_o so_o long_o both_o on_o the_o ear_n and_o the_o heart_n that_o in_o the_o end_n he_o kill_v he_o even_o so_o say_v the_o philosopher_n to_o his_o son_n will_v destruction_n come_v upon_o those_o which_o shall_v not_o accept_v &_o obey_v the_o good_a counsel_n and_o instruction_n of_o their_o age_a father_n finis_fw-la
