Prudence in Dealing with Rulers

Ecclesiastes 10:4-7

If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for gentleness allayeth great offences.

There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as it were an error which proceedeth from the ruler:

folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in a low place.

I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking like servants upon the earth.
