29 There be three thynges that go well, yea foure are comely in goyng.

30 A lion whiche is strongest among beastes, and shunneth not at the syght of any:

31 A grayhounde strong in the hynder partes, a ramme also, and a king against whom no man aryseth vp.

32 If thou hast done foolishly when thou wast in hye estate, or yf thou hast taken euyll counsayle, then lay thine hande vpon thy mouth.

33 Who so chirneth mylke bringeth foorth butter, and he that rubbeth his nose, maketh it bleede: Euen so he that forceth wrath, bringeth foorth strife.
