[ A Dogg Lardyner, & a Sowe Gardyner]
A dog in a larder, a sow in a garden, a fool with wise men, are ill matcht.

Fear God, serve your lord faithfully, be courteous to your fellows.
Despise no poor man.
Carry no tales.
Tell no lies.
Don’t play at dice or cards.
Take to your lord’s favourite sport.
Beware of idleness.
