{\i Yet} a little sleep, a little slumber,\par\tab A little folding of the hands to sleep:
Go to the ant, thou sluggard;\par\tab Consider her ways, and be wise:
How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard?\par\tab When wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep;\par\tab And the idle soul shall suffer hunger.
Love not sleep, let thou come to poverty;\par\tab Open thine eyes, {\i and} thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty;\par\tab And drowsiness will clothe {\i a man} with rags.
The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.
