man that wyll commande thee Wysedome in seruing IF thou serue or doest take away beware that thou defile no mannes gowne with anye thynge eyther with brother or with a caudel or with any other thyng To snuffe the candle BEing willing to snuffe the candle aryse firste from the table with thy foote treade vpon that that thou haste snuffed that no euil sauer offende the nose If thou geue or turne any thing take hede thou doe it not with the left hande To saye grace WHan thou art commaunded to saye grace dispose thy selfe as ready whan time shall bee to saye it and that euery manne hold his peace Then thy face must be reuerētly and constantly turned towards him that sitteth vppermoste at the table ¶ Of Metinges and intertayninge ¶ To tourne from the waye and to geue place and reuerence to persons worthy of honor and not to disprayse the unknowen YF thou meete with anye man in thy waye the whiche for his age is venerable or reuerend for his holinesse or graue for his dignitye or otherwise worthy of honor looke thou remember to geue him place to turne thee and to make him waye puttynge of thy bonet reuerently and somwhat bowing thy knee That the chylde neuer saye thus what haue I to do with one that I knowe not what haue I to doe with one that neuer did me good This honor is not done to man for his merites and good dedes but vnto god God by Salomon hathe so commaunded the whiche hathe commaunded to doe honor and to stande vp before an aged person He hathe also commaunded it by Sainct Paule to geue double honour to priestes and in briefe to doe honour to all those to whom honour is due comprehending also the eathnike and painims magistrates and gouernours And if the Turke had dominiō ouer vs that god forbid we should syn yf we should refuse the honour that is due to suche dignitie I holde my peace at this time of fathers mothers vnto whom after and next vnto god the firste honour is due And no lesse is due vnto preceptors and scholemasters that which as it were doe ingender the spirites of men and instruct them Reverence vnto oure egalles FUrthermore this worde of Sainct Paule ought to take place among our egalles and suche as bet lyke vnto vs preuenting saith he one another in doyng of honour He that doth preuent to doe honoure to hym that is like vnto vs or to our inferior is made neuer the lesse but more ciuill therfore more honorable He must speake reverently in fewe wordes with hys superious with his egalles amiablye and gently To holde the bonet with the left haude SPeakinge or whan thou dooest speake the left hande must hold the bonet the right hand being or swetely lying vpon his nauil or els the whiche is estemed more honest the bonet hanging vpon bothe his handes ioyned together and the twoo thūmes apearing shal couer the vpper part of the girdel To hold his boke or his bonet vnder his arme holes is a rude thing The child must haue a certaine shamefastnes that muste geue hym a grace and becom hym not to astonysh him To behold hym peasably and simplye vnto whō we speak THe eyes oughte to beholde hym vnto whom thou speakest but peasably and simply shewynge no maner of lasciuiousnes or of euylnes To holde downe the syght or to looke a tosyde bryngeth suspicion of an euyll conscience To looke a tone syde is like one that willeth and meaneth euyll To turne the face hether thether is a sygne of lightnes It is a foule thinge to chaunge the face into diuers sorts so that thou wrincle now thy nose nowe with thy foreheade or nowe to lifte vp thy browes nowe to moue thy lippes and that thy mouthe be now open and afterwardes shutte Suche fashions doe shewe a likelihode of a spirit like vnto Protheus that which was wonte to chaunge hym selfe into diuers formes It is also a foule thyng to cast the heere by mouing shaking the head to cough without necessitye to spit or to scratche his head to digge in his eares to wipe his nose to scratch his face with his hande for that dothe resemble him that wipeth awaye hys shamefastnes to rubbe the nape of the necke and to drawe in the shoulders that which thing we see in some Italiens To speake by sygnes is vnsemely for a chylde TO denie in turning the head or shaking it to call another and to the intent I speake not of all to speake by signes although at somtinie it become a man yet it becommeth not a childe It is a foule thing to playe w e the armes to fiddle with the fingers to stand a tipto and to be shorte not to speake with the tonge but with al the body is the propertie of turtle doues or of faire tailes and well aprochynge vnto pies A swete voice a peasable an vnderstādful and not to speake to hastelye THe voice must be swete and peasible not high the whiche thing pertaineth to paisans nor so low nor so soft that it cannot come to the eares of him that thou doest speak vnto That the speche and wordes going before the thought be not to hastie but al at leisure and so that it maie be vnderstanded For if that take not wholy away the naturall brutishnes a certaine impediment of speakinge yet at the least it doth mitigate and moderate it for the most part considering that the brutish and to hasty speche hath engēdred in many men the vice of the tong the which nature had not geuen them Often times to repete the honorable title of hym to whō we speake SPeaking to a man it is a ciuilitie oftentimes to repete his honorable title There is nothing more honorable nor more sweete than the name of the father and the mother There is nothing more amiable than the name of a brother and a sister If thou know not the particuler titles of euery man all learned men oughte to be honorable masters All priestes reuerende fathers all that are like vnto thy self brothers fréndes to be short all men vnknowen seignours all women vnknowen danies Not to swere at all and not to speake fylthelye IT is a vile thinge and an vnhoneste to heare an othe oute of the mouthe of a childe whether it be in sport or in good earnest What is more vile than the custome whereby in some countreis at euery worde and likewise the maidens doe swere by the brede by the wine and by the candle and to be short what is it that thei swere not by That the childe mingle not his tounge among and with vile wordes and that he hearken not vnto them finally nor to al that that doth discouer and open it selfe vnhonestly to the eyes of man and doth present it selfe vndecently to his eares If the case require that thou muste name some shamefull member thou muste signifye it by some modestius
