Heed my words as your ear be turned,
Let them in your mind for to be burned;
For they are food for life and strength,
In giving endurance at a great length.

Be diligent of your heart and take care,
For out of it are issues of life to share;
Discard the false tongue and fake lips,
And your eyes up, not down at the hips.

Watch your behavior remembering God,
As you praise Him for to honor and laud;
Always following the ways of the Lord,
And He will ensure salvation as a reward.

Keep straight and narrow and no turning,
Neither right nor left for lustful yearning;
For evil lurks and waits for you to stray,
Just like a vulture in devouring its prey.

So my son, I give this food for thought,
What you should be doing as well as not;
Keep them in your mind and your heart,
Tightly locked up within never to depart.
