When you sit down at the table with a great Lord, note what you have before you and put a knife to your throat if you are given to appetite; do not be desirous of his dainties, since they are deceitful food.
Do not wear yourself out to get rich; save your cleverness.
Riches sprout wings like an eagle and fly up to the heavens.
Do not encroach on the fields of the orphan.
An wayward wife is a narrow well. She lies in wait like a robber and increases the unfaithful among men.
You will sleep as though you were in the crow’s nest of a ship on the high seas
