13 v.10 Debate and strife proceed from pride,
14 v.9 Fools mock at Sin as small,
15 v.33 Honour is nigh humility.
16 v.18 Pride goes before a fall.
17 v.28 Ev'n fools when silent are thought wise,
18 v.23 The Poor rough answers hath;
19 v.6 All are his friend, rich gifts that send,
20 v.14 It's naught the buyer faith.
21 v.17 Followers of pleasure shall be poor.
22 v.29 The diligent promoted;
23 v.31 Look not on wine when brisk and fine,
24 v.30 The sluggard's field is noted.
25 v.21 Give bread unto thine enemy,
26 v.3 A rod for the fool's back.
27 v.6 Wounds of a friend are health in th'end.
28 v.27 Alms-givers shall not lack.
29 v.1 He surely falls that hates reproof.
30 Agur his sins doth own;

To Lemuel her son.
_ECCLESIASTES_
1 All's Vanity the preacher cries:
2 v.12 There's nothing new that's done;
3 v.46 A time to weep, to lose and keep.

_SOLOMON'S SONG_
1 Ardent the church's love to Christ,
2 And Christ the church too loves.
3 She tempted sought, and home him brought,
4 Her graces all he proves
5 Beauties of Christ the spouse describes,
6 His love to her he shows;
7 Again sets forth her beauty's worth,
8 Her love more ardent grows.
_ISAIAH_
1 A sad complaint Isaiah makes,
2 Christ's kingdom is foretold;
3 The women's pride he doth deride,
4 Christ's kingdom's a strong hold.
5 Barrenness on God's vineyard charg'd.
6 The prophet's lips are purg'd.
7 Immanuel comes of virgin's womb.
8 Jews by Assyrians scourg'd.
9 Christ shall in trouble bring great joy,
10 Assyria's pride shall fall;
11 The branch of Jesse with peace shall bless,
12 God praised is of all.
13 Destruction speeds to Babylon.
14 Israel denies relief;
15 Howl Moab, howl: in sackcloth toll.
16 From Pride results his grief.
17 Ephraim 'scapes as gleaning grapes,
18 To Ethiopia wo!
19 Egypt's wise men turn'd fools again.
20 She must a captive go.
21 Fall'n, fall'n is Babylon they cry.
22 The Jews make fast a feast.
23 Judgments on Tyre, the turns to hire,
24 The Lord the earth makes waste.
25 God for his judgments, prais'd must be,
26 In him we must confide.
27 He keeps with care his vineyard fair,
28 Wo to the crown of pride!
29 He cries wo, wo to Ariel!
30 Contempt of prophets blam'd.
31 On them that go to Egypt, wo!
32 Christ's kingdom's blessings nam'd.
