The thoughts of the diligent {\i tend} only to plenteousness;\par\tab But every one that is hasty {\i hasteth} only to want.
A fool uttereth all his anger;\par\tab But a wise man keepeth it back and stilleth it.
Also, that the soul be without knowledge is not good;\par\tab And he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.
A servant will not be corrected by words;\par\tab For though he understand, he will not give heed.
He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child\par\tab Shall have him become a son at the last.
