8. People who won’t settle down, wandering hither and yon,are like restless birds, flitting to and fro.
9. Just as lotions and fragrance give sensual delight,a sweet friendship refreshes the soul.
10. Don’t leave your friends or your parents’ friendsand run home to your family when things get rough;Better a nearby friendthan a distant family.
11. Become wise, dear child, and make me happy;then nothing the world throws my way will upset me.
12. A prudent person sees trouble coming and ducks;a simpleton walks in blindly and is clobbered.
