8. Sum up what you have to say;much can be said in few words.Be like one who knowsbut who can keep silent.
9. When you are among the more influential, don’t presume authority;and where elders are present,don’t talk idly about many things.
10. Lightning comes before thunder,and good favor walksin front of a modest person.
11. Rise up to leave in time,and don’t be the last person out;go back to your own home,and don’t miss your workthe next day.
12. Enjoy yourself there,and do what you please,but don’t sin with arrogant words.
