the
whiche

hauynge
also
a

Fyrste
it
is
necessary

Go

¶
Here
is
to
be
noted
that
where
there
is
plentye
of

there
is
plentye
of
pasture
,
and
no
skarsyte
of
water
.
And
where
there
is
plentye
of
honny
,
there
is
no
skarsyte
,
but
plentyfulnes
of
woddes
.
For
there
be
moo
bees
in
woddes
,
and
so
consequently
abundaunce
of
honny
,
than
there
be
bees
or
honny
or
waxe
in

in

Wherfore
it
apereth
that
who
soeuer
that
wyl
buylde
a

he
must
cytuat

But
he
the
whiche
wyll

for

,
he
must
dwell

For

The
seconde
chapter
,
doth
shewe
a
man
,
howe
he
shulde
buylde
his
howse
or
Mansyon
,
that
the
prospecte
be
fayre
and
good
for
the
conseruacion
of
helthe
.
AFter
that
a
man
haue
chosen
a
conuenyent
soyle
and
place
accordynge
to
his
mynde
and
purpose
to
buylde
his
howse
or
mansyon
on
.
He
must
haue
afore
cast
in
his
mynde
,
that
the
prospecte
to
and
fro
the
place
,
be
pleasaunt
,
fayre
,
and
good
to
the
iye
,
to
behold
the
woddes
,
the
waters
,
the
feldes
,
the
vales
the
hylles
,
&
the
playne
grounde
.
And
that
euery
thynge
be
desent
and
fayre
to
the
iye
not
onely
within
the
precynct
of
the
place
apoynted
to
buylde
a
mansyon
or
a
howse
to
the
commodyties
about
it
,
but
also
it
may
be
placable
to
the
iyes
of
all
men
to
se
and
to
beholde
whan
they
be
a
good
dystaunce
of
from
the
place
,
that
it
doth
stande
commodyously
.
For
the
commodyous
buyldynge
of
a
place
doth
not
onely
satysfye
the
mynde
of
the
inhabytour
,
but
also
it
doth
conforte
and
reioyseth
a
mannes
harte
to
se
it
,
specyally
the
pul●●use
prospecte
.
For
my
conceyte
is
such
that
I
had
rather
not
to
buylde
a
mansyon
or
a
howse
,
than
to
buylde
one
without
a
good
prospecte
in
it
to
it
,
&
from
it
.
For
&
the
iye
be
not
satysfyed
,
the
mynde
can
not
be
contentyd
And
the
mynde
can
not
be
contentyd
,
the
harte
can
not
be
pleased
,
yf
the
herte
and
mynde
be
not

nature

And
yf

do
abhorre
,
mortyfycacion
of

anymall

spyrytuall
powers
do
consequently
folowe
.

The

shewe
a

THere
is
noo

And
also

For
Galyen

no

we

no

The

as

Good

For
yf

Many

Wherfore

and
a
pleasaunt
thyng
to

to

it

A

And
amonge

a

aboute

other
whyle
for

whan

The

howe
a

shulde

WHan

yf

he

Yet
euery

euery

do

,
this
notwithstandynge
better
it

Thus
a

And

For

Wherfore
I

For

For

The

And

WHo
so

And
yf

he
must
ordre
his

after
his

wynnynge

For
he
that
wyll
spende
more
in

than

or

it

wherfore
they
the
which
wyll
exchewe
suche
prodygalyte

must
deuyde

,
wherby
he
dothe
lyue
in

thre
equall
porcions
or

The

prouyde
for
meate

drinke
,
and
al
other
necessary
thyngꝭ
for
the
sustentacion
of
the

.
The
seconde
porcion

must
be
reseruyd
for

not

for

selfe
,
but
for

The

And
he

he
can
not

the
whiche
dothe
perturbe
the

and
so
consequently
doth
shorten
a

Wherfore
there

noo

wyll
exchewe

And
wyll

And
in

For

But

¶
The
.vii.
Chapter
doth
shewe
howe
the
heed
of
a
howse
,
or
a
howsholder
,
shuld
exercyse
hymselfe
,
for
the
health
of
his
soule
and
body
.
AFter
that
a
man
hath
prouyded
all
thynges
necessarye
for
his
howse
,
and
for
his
howsholde
:
expedient
it
is
for
hym
to
knowe
howe
he
shuld
exercyse
hymself
both
bodely
and
ghostly
.
For
there
is
no
catholike
or
christen
man
lyuyng
,
but
he
is
bounde
in
conscience
to
be
more
circumspecter
aboute
the
welth
of
his
soule
,
than
the
health
of
his
bodye
.
Our
sauyoure
Iesus
Christe
sayth
:
What
shall
it
profyte
to
man
yf
he
get
al
the
worlde
,
and
lose
hymselfe
,
and
bryng
hymselfe
to
a
detryment
.
Wherfore
it
appeareth
that
a
man
ought
to
be
circumspect
for
the
helth
and
welth
of
his
soule
,
for
he
is
bounde
so
to
lyue
,
that
nyght
&
daye
,
and
at
all
houres
he
shuld
be
redy
,
than
whan
he
is
called
for
to
departe
out
of
this
worlde
he
shulde
not
fere
to
dye
,
sayenge
these
wordes
with
S.
Ambrose
,
I
fere
not
to
dye
,
for
we
haue
a
good
God
.
Whan
a
man
hath
prepared
for
his
soule
and
hath
subdued
sensualyte
,
and
that
he
hath
brought
hymselfe
in
a
trade
or
an
vsage
of
a
ghostly
or
catholyke
lyuyng
in
obseruyng
the
commaundementes
of
god
.
Than
he
muste
studye
to
rule
and
gouerne
them
the
whiche
be
in
his
howsholde
or
vnder
his
custody
or
dominion
,
to
se
that
they
be
not
ydle
.
For
kyng
Henry
the
.viii.
sayd
whan
he
was
yonge
.
Idlenes
is
cheife
maystres
of
vyces
all
.
And
also
the
heed
of
an
howse
must
ouer
se
,
that
they
the
whiche
be
vnder
his
tuission
serue
god
the
holy
dayes
as
dylygentlye
se
,
and
more
dylygentlyer
,
than
to
do
theyr
worke
,
the
feryall
dayes
refraynyng
them
from
vyce
and
synne
,
compellyng
them
to
obserue
the
commaundementes
of
God
,
specyally
to
punyshe
swerers
,
for
in
al
the
world
there
is
not
such
odeable
sweryng
as
is
vsed
in
Englande
,
specially
amonges
youthe
and
chyldren
,
whiche
is
a
detestable
thynge
to
here
,
and
no
man
doth
go
aboute
to
punyshe
it
.
Suche
thynges
reformed
,
than
maye
an
howsholder
be
glad
,
not
ceasyng
to
instruct
them
the
whiche
be
ygnoraunt
,
but
also
he
muste
contynue
in
shewynge
good
example
of
lyuynge
,
than
may
he
reioyce
in
God
&
be
mery
,
the
whiche
myrth
and
reioysyng
doth
length
a
mannes
lyfe
,
and
doth
expell
syckenes
.
¶
The
.viii.
Chapter
doth
shewe
howe
a
man
shuld
ordre
hymselfe
in
slepynge
,
and
watche
,
and
in
werynge
of
his
apparayll
.
WHan
a
man
hath
well
exercysed
hymselfe
in
the
dayetyme
as
is
rehersed
,
he
maye
slepe
soundly
&
surely
in
god
,
what
chaunce
soeuer
fortune
in
the
nyght
.
Moderate
slepe
in
most
praysed
,
for
it
doth
make
perfyte
dygestion
.
It
doth
noryshe
the
blod
and
doth
qualyfy
the
heate
of
the
lyuer
.
It
doth
acuat
,
quycken
,
and
refreshe
,
the
memorye
.
It
doth
restore
nature
,
&
doth
quiet
all
the
humours
&
pulses
in
man
,
and
doth
any
mat
and
comforte
all
the
naturall
,
animall
,
and
spyrytuall
,
powers
of
man
.
And
such
moderat
slepe
is
acceptable
in
the
syght
of
God
,
the
premises
in
the
aforesayd
chapter
obserued
and
kept
.
And
contraryly
,
immoderat
slepe
and
sluggyshnes
doth
humiate
and
make
lyght
the
brayne
,
it
doth
engendre
rewme
and
Impostumes
,
it
is
euyl
for
the
palsy
,
whether
it
be
vniuersal
or
pertyculer
,
It
is
euyl
for
the
fallyng
sycknes
called
Epilencia
,
Aualencia
,
and
Cathalencia
,
Appoplesia
,
Soda
.
With
all
other
infyrmytes
in
the
heed
,
for
it
enduseth
oblyuyousnes
,
for
it
doth
obfuske
and
doth
obnebulat
the
memorie
and
the
quyckenes
of
wyt
.
And
shortely
to
conclude
it
doth
perturbe
the
naturall
,
anymall
and
spyrytuall
,
powers
of
man
,
and
specially
it
doth
in
stygat
and
lede
a
man
to
fylle
,
and
doth
induce
and
infarre
breuyte
of
lyfe
&
detestably
it
dyspleaseth
God
.
Our
Lorde
Iesu
Christe
dyd
not
onely
byd
his
dysciples
to
watche
,
but
dyd
animat
them
and
all
other
so
to
do
,
sayenge
.
(
I
say
not
onely
to
you
watche
)
but
to
all
men
I
say
watche
.
And
to
Peter
he
sayd
mightest
not
thou
one
houre
watche
with
me
.
Althoughe
these
holye
scriptures
with
many
other
mo
,
the
whiche
I
myght
allyg●t
for
me
,
although
they
be
not
greatly
refarred
to
this
sence
,
yet
it
may
stonde
here
with
my
purpose
&
matter
without
reprehension
.
These
matters
her
:
nede
not
greatly
to
be
rehersed
.
Wherfore
I
do
returne
to
my
purpose
,
and
say
that
the
moderacion
of
slepe
,
shuld
be
mesured
according
to
the
naturall
complexion
of
man
,
and
in
any
wyse
to
haue
a
respect
to
the
strength
and
debelytie
to
age
&
youth
,
and
to
syckenes
&
health
of
man
.
Fyrst
as
consernyng
the
naturall
helth
of
man
.
Sanguyne
and
colorycke
men
.vii.
houres
of
slepe
is
suff●cient
for
them
.
And
nowe
consyderying
the
imbecilite
and
wekenes
of
nature
a
flumaticke
man
may
slepe
.ix.
houres
or
more
:
melancoly
men
may
take
theyr
pleasure
,
for
they
be
the
receptacle
and
the
dredges
of
al
the
other
humours
.
Secondly
youth
&
age
wolde
haue
temperaunce
in
slepyng
.
Thyrdly
strength
may
suffre
a
bront
in
watche
the
which
debelyte
and
wekenes
may
not
.
As
I
wyl
shewe
by
a
famylyer
example
.
There
was
two
men
sat
at
the
dyce
togyther
a
day
and
a
nyght
,
and
more
,
the
weke
man
sayd
to
hym
,
I
can
playe
no
longer
,
the
stronge
man
sayd
to
him
,
fye
on
the
bench
whystler
wylt
thou
start
away
now
,
the
weke
man
to
satysfy
the
stronge
mans
mynde
,
appetyte
and
desyre
playeth
with
his
felow
through
the
whiche
he
doth
kyll
hymself
,
the
strong
man
doth
hymself
lytel
pleasure
,
al
thyngis
consydred
the
whiche
I
do
passe
ouer
.
Wherfore
I
wyl
returne
to
the
sycke
man
,
which
may
slepe
at
all
tymes
,
whan
he
may
get
it
but
yf
he
may
slepe
at
any
tyme
,
best
it
is
for
hym
to
refrayne
from
slepe
in
the
day
&
to
take
his
natural
rest
and
slepe
in
the
night
and
to
eschew
merydyall
slepe
,
but
yf
nede
shall
compel
a
man
to
slepe
after
his
meat
,
let
hym
make
a
pause
,
&
than
let
him
stand
and
leaue
agaynst
a
cupborde
and
slepe
,
or
els
let
hym
syt
vpright
in
a
chayre
&
slepe
:
slepynge
after
a
full
stomacke
doth
ingendre
dyuers
infyrmyties
.
It
doth
hurte
the
splen
,
it
relaxith
the
synewes
,
it
doth
ingendre
the
dropses
and
the
gowte
,
&
doth
make
a
man
loke
euyll
colored
.
Bewale
of
venerious
actes
before
the
fyrst
slepe
,
and
specially
beware
of
suche
thynges
after
dyner
,
or
after
a
full
stomacke
,
for
it
doth
ingendre
the
crampe
and
the
gowte
and
other
displeasures
.
To
bedward
be
you
mery
,
or
haue
mery
company
about
you
,
so
that
to
bedward
no
anger
