 millstones.

    Follow your desire as long as you live and do not perform more than is

 desire, for riches will not profit if one is sluggish.

 The Teaching for Merikare
 c. 2135-2040  B.C.
 

    Be skillful in speech, that you may be strong; [ . . . ] it is the
 strength of [ . . . ] the tongue, and words are braver than all fighting 1
 2  3  . . . a wise man is a school for the magnates, and those who are aware
 of his knowledge do not attack him.

 The Teaching for Merikare
 Par. 4

 1 See Cervantes
 2 See Burton
 3 See BulwerLytton




    Copy your forefathers, 1  for work is carried out through knowledge; see,
 their words endure in writing. . . . Do not be evil, for pa-tience is good;
 make your lasting monument in the love of you.

 The Teaching for Merikare
 Par. 5

 1 See Tacitus




    Wretched is he who has bound the land to himself [ . . . ]; a fool is he
 who is greedy when others possess. Life on earth passes away, it is not
 long; 1  2  3  he is fortunate who has a good remembrance in it.

 The Teaching for Merikare
 Par. 6

 1 See Homer
 2 See Pindar
 3 See Aristophanes




    Do justice, that you may live long upon earth. Calm the weeper, do not
 oppress the widow, do not oust a man from his father's property, do not
 degrade magnates from their seats. Beware of punishing wrongfully; do not
 kill, for it will not profit you.

 The Teaching for Merikare
 Par. 8





    More acceptable is the character of the straightforward man than the ox
 of the wrongdoer. Serve God, that He may do the like for you . . . Provide
 for men, the cattle of God, for He made heaven and earth 1  at their desire.
 He suppressed the greed of the waters, He gave the breath of life to their
 noses, for they are likenesses of Him which issued from His flesh. 2

 The Teaching for Merikare
 Par. 22

 1 See Psalm 121:2
 2 See Genesis 1:26




    Instill the love of you into all the world, for a good character is what
 is remembered.

 c. 1700-1000  B.C.
 

 Hail to you gods . . .
 On that day of the great reckoning.
 Behold me, I have come to you,
 Without sin, without guilt, without evil,

 Without one whom I have wronged. . . .
 Rescue me, protect me,
