eft incedere per viam re&am, fecundum
eum qui dicit : Ne declines ad dexter am,
neque ad ßnißram : averte pedem tuum a
via mala : vias enim, qua a dextris fu n t,
novit Dominus : quoniam perverfe fu n t qua
a finifiris funt . Deum time, & timor
ejus cuftodiet te. Serva mandata ipfius ,
& mandata ejus in veritatc deducent te.
Contumacia vero, aut peftilentia , aut
invidia, aut fuperbia, & his fimilia, non
commorentur in finu tuo ; neque inglu-
vies , vel turpitudo, vel /tultiloquium ,
vel fcurrilitas , quæ ad rem non pertinent
. Omnis enim, qui in hifee—»
ambulat , a via veritatis aberrat, fe-
ipfum per loca invia terendo . Qui
autem in via ambulat retfta , ipfe_j
fe in manfionem vitæ provehet atque
deducet. Ne ergo religionem ac pie-
tatein veram & ab omni fimulatione__j
aliénant deperdas , frater carilfime .
Pietas porro eft, abftinere ab omni
fpecie mala. Si vero accident nos de
opere bono contumeliam pati , ne__y
erubefcamus opprobrium nobis injufte
ab hominibus illatum , & faciamus quæ
non oportet . Scriptum eft enim : Po-
pulus meus , cujus nomen meum in corde
vefïro ; nojite timere opprobrium hominum,
