Good diet.
[5]
Good broth and good kéeping do much now and than,
good diet with wisedome best comforteth man.
In health to be stirring shall profit thée best,
in sicknes hate trouble, séeke quiet and rest.
Thinke on thy soule and haue a good hope.
[6]
Remember thy soule, let no fansie preuaile,
make readie to Godward, let faith neuer [quaile].
The sooner thy selfe thou submittest to God,
the sooner he ceaseth to scourge with his rod.
[92.]
¶ The good motherlie nurserie.
[1]
Good huswiues take paine, and doo count it good luck,
to make their owne brest their owne childe to giue suck.
Though [wrauling] and rocking be noisome so neare,
yet lost by ill nursing is woorser to heare.
[2]
But one thing I warne thee, let huswife be nurse,
least husband doo find thée too franke with his purse.
What hilback and filbellie maketh away,
that helpe to make good, or else looke for a fraie.
