For this that thou hast herd before

Is seid the ferste point of Pride:

And next upon that other side, 1230

To schryve and speken overthis

Touchende of Pride, yit ther is

The point seconde, I thee behote,

Which Inobedience is hote.

[ii. Inobedience.]

vi. Flectere quam frangi melius reputatur, et olle

Fictilis ad cacabum pugna valere nequit.
