6He left behinde him an auenger against his enemies, and one that shall requite kindnesse to his friends. 7He that maketh too much of his sonne, shall binde vp his wounds, and his bowels wil be troubled at euery cry. 8An horse not broken becommeth headstrong: and a childe left to himselfe will be wilfull. 9Cocker thy childe, and hee shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he will bring thee to heauinesse. 10Laugh not with him, lest thou haue sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end.
