R

Read daily something of God's book for the increase of knowledge and conscience; and add also meditation and prayer to that. For these three, faith , love, hope make a 'divine': all time spent this way is well spent. As for trashy and 'idle' books, shun them as rocks.
Rejoice in the good you know by another: praise God for it, pray for the increase of it. But if you know any evil by any, mourn for it and if you can by brotherly admonition amend it.
Refrain your ears, eyes, mouth and hands, from hearing, seeing, speaking or performing any wicked and vain thing, knowing that death often enters in at the windows.
