3If thou hast gathered nothing in thy youth, how canst thou finde any thing in thine age? 4Oh how comely a thing is iudgement for gray haires, and for ancient men to know counsell? 5Oh how comely is the wisedome of olde men, and vnderstanding and counsell to men of honour? 6Much experience is the crowne of olde men, and the feare of God is their glory. 7There be nine things which I haue iudged in mine heart to be happy, and the tenth I will vtter with my tongue: a man that hath ioy of his children, and he that liueth to see the fall of his enemie.
