The Parables of Salomon the sonne of Dauid King of Israel,

He that begetteth a foole, getteth himselfe sorow, and the father of a foole can haue no ioy.

A foolish sonne is the calamitie of his father, and the contentions of a wife are like a continuall dropping.

The father of the righteous shal greatly reioyce, and hee that begetteth a wise childe, shall haue ioy of him.

These are also Parables of Salomon, which the men of Hezekiah King of Iudah copied out.

The rodde and correction giue wisdome: but a childe set a libertie, maketh his mother ashamed.

And the more wise the Preacher was, the more he taught the people knowledge, and caused them to heare, and searched foorth, and prepared many parables.
