Whose Gold Is Double With

If Thou Desire To See Thy Child Virtuous, Let Him Not See His Father's Vices: Thou Canst Not Rebuke That In Them, That They Behold Practised In Thee; Till Reason Be Ripe, Examples Direct More Than Precepts: Such As Thy Behaviour Is Before Thy Children's Faces, Such Commonly Is Theirs Behind Their Parents' Backs.

Humility Enforces Where Neither Virtue Nor Strength Can Prevail, Nor Reason.

Lust Is An Immoderate Wantonness Of The Flesh, A Sweet Poison, A Cruel Pestilence; A Pernicious Poison, Which Weakeneth The Body Of Man, And Effeminateth The Strength Of The Heroic Mind.

Proportion Thy Charity To The Strength Of Thine Estate, Lest God Proportion Thine Estate To The Weakness Of Thy Charity. Let The Lips Of The Poor Be The Trumpet Of Thy Gift, Lest In Seeking Applause, Thou Lose Thy Reward. Nothing Is More Pleasing To God Than An Open Hand And A Closed Mouth.

He That Discovers Himself, Till He Hath Made Himself Master Of His Desires, Lays Himself Open To His Own Ruin, And Makes Himself Prisoner To His Own Tongue.
