"Leave off first, for manners’ sake: and exceed not, lest thou offend."
Sirach 31:20

Em contexto

18Judge of the disposition of thy neighbour by thyself.

19Use as a frugal man the things that are set before thee: lest if thou eatest much, thou be hated.

20Leave off first, for manners’ sake: and exceed not, lest thou offend.

21And if thou sittest among many, reach not thy hand out first of all: and be not the first to ask for drink.

22How sufficient is a little wine for a man well taught, and in sleeping thou shalt not be uneasy with it, and thou shalt feel no pain.
