Be of seemly semblance, wise, and other good cheer;
Change not thy countenance for aught that thou may hear.
Fare not as a gig,[[90]] for nought that may betide.
Laugh thou not too loud nor yawn thou not too wide.
But laugh thou soft and mild,
And be not of cheer too wild,
My lief child.
And when thou goest on thy way, go thou not too fast,
Brandish not with thy head, nor with thy shoulders cast,[[91]]
Have not too many words, from swearing keep aloof,
