Has Fortune Dealt You Some Bad Cards.

Be Not Too Rash In The Breaking Of An Inconvenient Custom; As It Was Gotten, So Leave It By Degrees. Danger Attends Upon Too Sudden Alterations; He That Pulls Down A Bad Building By The Great May Be Ruined By The Fall, But He That Takes It Down Brick By Brick May Live To Build A Better.

Heaven Finds An Ear When Sinners Find A Tongue.

If Thou Hast No Inferiors, Have Patience Awhile, And Thou Shalt Have No Superiors. The Grave Requires No Marshal.

If Thy Words Be Too Luxuriant, Confine Them, Lest They Confine Thee; He That Thinks He Never Can Speak Enough May Easily Speak Too Much. A Full Tongue And An Empty Brain Are Seldom Parted.

My Soul, The Seas Are Rough, And Thou A Stranger In These False Coasts; O Keep Aloof; There's Danger; Cast Forth Thy Plummet; See, A Rock Appears; Thy Ships Want Sea-room; Make It With Thy Tears.
