Prudence in Dealing with Rulers
4
If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for gentleness allayeth great offences.
5
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as it were an error which proceedeth from the ruler:
6
folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in a low place.
7
I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking like servants upon the earth.
