1. Eat less, sleep well, repent sincerely
A restful night leads to piety

2. He who eats heavy suffers pain
From sudden illness he shall cry

3. Eating little with dignity
Is better than gluttony greedily

4. Living secure in lawful laziness
Is better than glory anxiously

5. Time passes in its nature
Between months in haste and delay

6. The longest life is still too short
When death's encounter cannot be swayed

7. One lives past seven if
Greed for hopes does not him waylay

8. Child, infant, lad, youth
The mature, the strong and the decay

9. Grey hair and death, what if or maybe
And despair wrenches out hope's stay
