Forth of a Cloud (with Scale and Rule ) extended An Arme (for this next Emblem ) doth appeare; Which hath to us in silent-showes, commended, A Vertue, that is often wanting, here. The World, is very studious of Deceipts ; And, he is judged wisest, who deceives. False-measures, and, Adulterated-weights, Of many dues, the needy-man bereaves. Ev'n Weights to sell, and, other Weights to buy ( Two sorts of weights ) in practice are, with some; And, both of these, they often falsifie, That, they to great, and suddaine-wealth, may come. But, Conscience make of raysing your estates, By such a base, and such a wicked way: For, this Injustice, God expressely hates; And, brings, at last, such thrivers to decay. By Weight and measure, He on all bestowes The Portions due; That, Weight and Measure, then, Which Man to God, or to his Neighbour owes, Should, justly, be returned backe agen. Give ev'ry one, in ev'ry thing his owne: Give honour, where an honour shall be due; Where you are loved, let your love be showne; And, yield them succours, who have succour'd you. Give to thy Children, breeding and Corrections ; Thy Charities, ev'n to thy Foes extend: Give to thy Wife, the best of thy Affections ; To God, thy selfe, and, all thou hast, commend: And, lest thou faile, Remember who hath sayd, Such measure, as thou giv'st, shall be repay'd.
