If thou would'st have a good Servant, let thy Servant find a wise Master; let his Food, Rest,
and Wages be seasonable; let his Labour, Recreations, and Attendance, depend upon thy Pleasure; be not angry with him too long, lest he think thee malicious, nor too soon, lest he conceive thee rash, not too often, lest he count the humo∣rous; be not too fierce, lest he love thee not, nor too remiss, lest he fear thee not, nor too familiar, lest he prize thee not. In brief, whil'st thou givest him the Liberty of a Servant, be∣ware thou losest not the Maje∣sty of a Master.
