OUT OF THE LIFE OF S. LUDOVIC, HIS CHARGE To his Son.
IF any Controversy or action be rais'd against thee, inquire into the Truth, as well on the contrary part as on thy side. If thou hast any thing of anothers, taken by thy self, or by thy Ancestors, Restore it quickly. Wage no War against any Christian, but by the Counsel of Many, and when War is unavoidable. And in War, do no hurt to Church-men, and those that have done thee no wrong. If Seditions rise among thy subjects, quiet them as soon as thou canst. See often what thy Officers do, and examin their ways, and reform what is amiss. Let no soul sin reign within thy Kingdom.
