11. The human body is a fleeting thing,but a virtuous name will never be annihilated.

12. Have respect for your name, for it will stand by youmore than thousands of precious treasures.

13. The good things of life last a number of days,but a good name, for days without number.

15. Better is the person who hides his follythan the one who hides his wisdom.

14a. My children, listen to instruction about shame;

16a. judge of disgrace according to my rules,
