THe slaunderer and dissembler goe togither: He that dissem∣bleth hatred with lying lips, and hee that inuenteth slaunder, is a foole; There is then a malicious dissembler: Hee that hateth will counterfeit with his lippes, and
in his heart hee layeth vp deceit; such one, Tho he speake fauoura∣bly, beleeue him not; for there are seauen abhominations in his heart. Hatred may be couered with deceit; but the malice ther∣of shall (at last) bee discouered in the congregation. There is a vaine-glorious dissembler, that maketh himself rich & is poore; and 3. a couetous: There is that makes himselfe poore hauing great riches; & this both in bar∣gains: It is naught, It is naught, sayth the bu••er; but when hee is gone apart; hee boasteth; and 2. Jn his entertaynement; The man that hath an euill eye, as though hee thought in his heart, so will hee saie to
thee, Eate and drinke, but his heart is not with thee: Lastly, an impenitent; Hee that hideth his sinnes shall not prosper: but hee that confesseth and forsaketh them shall haue mercie. The flat∣terer prayseth his friend with a loude voyce, rising early in the morning; but with what success? To himselfe; It shall bee counted to him for a curse: To his friend; A man that flattereth his neigh∣bour, spreadeth a not for his steps; hee spreadeth and catcheth: For a Flattering mouth causeth ru∣ine. The only remedie then is; Med∣dle not with him that flattereth with his lippes; for It is better to heare the rebuke of wise men, then the song of fooles.
