11. Timely advice is lovely,like golden apples in a silver basket.

12. To one who listens, valid criticismis like a gold earring or other gold jewelry.

13. Trustworthy messengers refresh like snow in summer.They revive the spirit of their employer.

15. Patience can persuade a prince,and soft speech can break bones.

16. Do you like honey?Don’t eat too much, or it will make you sick!
