there is no one thinge thy wyfe wyl take more greuouslye Nor any other thynge vereth hir spirites so vehemently Nor of nothynge desyreth she so soone to be reuenged As in that one poynte if hir husbande haue offended Then wareth she hote incensyd with yre With dispyte and malyce then hir harte is on fyre In which their furiouse rage some seke the waye than In lyke sorte if they may to deceaue their good man Beleue me sonne sewe of them will kepe their honestie Yf their husbandes in suche wyse do lyue abrode visiouslye Further thy children hereafter see thou vp brynge In vertuouse excercyse and also good learnynge Teache theim to feare God and the to obaye And euer kepe them in obedience as muche as thou maye For they wyll euer waxe bolde as nede shall requyre But not alwayes so humble as thou wouldest desyre Therfore whyle they are younge and tender of yeres Is bothe their helpe and vndoynge as it oft apperes Muche paynes muste thou take in godly instructynge theim Yf thou purpose they shal euer proue honest men Lause them al euel company to exchue continually For iuste he cannot be that is conuersaunte with the vngodly One shepe hauyngs a peryllouse pocke Of force muste enfecte all the hole flocke Thy daughters alwayes with shamefastnes vprere For it is the fairest flower all women can were Let them neuer be ydle but alwayes doynge With the whele the distafe or with the nedle sowynge For the welfare of this sexe standeth in their honestye Which when they are ydle is then in most ieoperdye And at their ripe yeres do it not ouer slyde Some honest husbandes for theim to prouyde Be not bitter good sonne to thy seruauntes at any tyme Neither punyshe theim with rigoure for euery cryme There is a meane to be obserued in correccion I saye By whiche thou maiest cause them thee both to loue obaye And althoughe fortune hathe poynted the their mayster to be He myght lykewyse haue made a seruaunte of the And what hereafter may fall no man knoweth his chaunce For the hole state of mans lyfe dependeth in ballaunce I haue knowen dyuerse men bothe riche and welthye That afterwarde haue fallen in suche myserye That full fayne they haue bene to auoyde vyle beggerye By seruyce to lyue in great callamitie What we are haue bene we knowe but what after we shal be We are ignoraunte therof suche is oure vncertayntye In thy fyrste kepynge of hduse be not to sumptuouse Neyther in foode nor apparell to laciuiouse For at thy pleasure thou mayest the same alway amende When God aboundaunce of substaunce hereafter shall sende But it woulde be to thy shame yf thou shouldest aslake The fyrste honnest porte thou diddest vpon the take Often call home thy neyghbours but most suche as are poore To dyne and suppe with the let some of them be sure The Lorde thy table shall blesse the more And for suche liberallitie he wil encrease thy store Go not to lawe with them nor be no extoretoner Finyshe their causes yf thou maiest and be no bearer In no mans mattier but in all that thou caune Set quietnesse and concorde betwene man and man But in wranglinge matters be in no wyse no medler Whiche myghte get the an yll name and no man the better Further yf thou fynde a man of an approued honestye That feareth God and is geuen to good vertues hollye Of whome moste men sayewell for his good lyuynge That is no drunckarde quarrelloure nor delyteth in striuig But quyet sober and learned in sapience Beynge of good iudgemente and also of good experience This mans frendshyp seke buselye to obtayne For then a faythe full frende there is no greater gayne But er thou hys amitie earnistlie embrace Learne howe he hath vsed hys other frendes in lyke cate For suche as his behauioure hathe bene to other moe Truste me sonne he wylorder the euen so And when thou once haste him thy frende vnfeynedly Then seke to continue in frendshyp dillygentlye Let no lyght dyspleasure the same breake or decaye But beare with hym rather in all that thou maye Of all treasure the chefest that God dothe in earthe sende Is a man to haue alwayes a sure and stedfast frende Furthermore yf sycknesse shall vere the or thyne Se thou minister remedye to the same betyme Or euer the same do augment and encrease The soner shal it mende and the grefe be the lesse For lyke as fyre when it is fyrste begonne With a lyttel water wylbe quenched full soone But yf it be suffered to contynue stylle And a whyle to burne euen at his owne wyll Then the flame wylbe raysed in suche a great rage That hole welles and conduictes can scace it aswage Euen so euery malladye at the fyrste entraunce Maye be easely cured without great greuaunce This fyrste poynt of phisycke learne thou of me Yf the sycknes be hote colde or moyste the remedy must be contrarye If ouer much laboure and trauayle be the cause Then by ease and rest from the same thou must pause And yf the same come by ouer muche ease and rest Then exercyse and moderate laboure is best Yf it be by superfluitye of drincke or meate Then abstmence is the best remedie thou can get And yf nede requyre a phisicion then call Or a surgion but good diet is the best lieche of all The surgion is nerte for phisicions do kyll The moste part that put their truste theim vntyll For where by happe some one they do saue A hundred for hym they sende to theyr graue ALSO my sonne this laste precepte thou muste learne Which dilygently to obserue I the earnistlye warne Be prepared alwayes and euermore full redye Deathe to enbrace where he striketh soudenlye Yea euen in his moost Lust and welthiest tyme Let the remembraunce of hym be styll before thyne yene He assaulteth men comonly when they thinke of hym lest Fearcelye inuadynge them in their moste quietnes and rest He draweth euer nexer with his ineuitable darte Daylye percynge euery age of man to the harte Howe often dothe death strike the younge lustye man And beryeueth hym of hys best yeres we se nowe and than Oh howe great are the trauayles and payne That a man in this lyfe with payne dothe sustayne Howe shorte is our tyme and the same also so varyable That nothynge in this lyfe can be founde stable With what innumerable pylles are we beseged Whiche by this oure frayle nature can neuer be resyted What we oure vayne pleasures wherin we so truste Euen poysoned with galle and cankered with ruste What are we owretches but duste of the ayre As bryttell as glasse seme it neuer so fayre Moste lyke to a shadowe in a sonnye daye Which when the cloudes are alost sodenly vanyshe a waye Lyke as a flower whiche florisheth in the mornynge dew And at nyghte is withered and hathe vaded his hewe For thoughe we are now alyue and lustye in euery mans sight
