Another thing that you must attend to, my daughter, is, that wnen you are in the street you do not go looking hither and thither, nor turning your head to look at this and that; walk neither looking at ihn sItim Tini ntrf Via (rrrnii nil T)a Tint Innlr upon those whom you meet with the eyes of ani uucuueu person, or nave uio appcarauce ui ue- uuea5jr, uut ui uue uuiuujus upuu nu witu a serene couutenance; doin this, you will give no one occasion of being offended with you.

Take care that you neither answer nor speak, but act as if you neither heard nor understood them; since, doing in this manner, no one will be able , to say with truth that you have said anything amiss. J 'See, likewise, my daughter, that you never paint your face, or stain it or your lips with colors, in order to appear well; since this isa mark of vile and unchaste women. Paints and coloring are things which bad women imuse,the modest, who have lost all shame and even sense, who are like fools and drunkards, and are called rameras prostitutes.

Only one thing remains to be said. and I have. done. : If God shall give ou: y life, if you shall continue some years upon the eHih, see that you guard yourself carefully, that no stain comes upon you; should you forfeit your chastity, and afterwards be asked in marriage and should marry any one, you will never oe lortunate, nor have true love,- - he will always remember that you were-noa this will be afflicthe cause of creat virgmnd lion and distress; you will never be at peace, for your husband will always be suspicious of you. O my dearly beloved daughter, if you shall live upon the earth, see that no more than one man approaches you; and observe what I now shall tell you, .as command. When ifshall please God that you shall receive a" husband, and you are placed . under - Iiis authorityrbe free from arrogance, see that you; do not neglect him, nor allow your heart to be in opposition to him.Be not disrespectful to him. Beware that in no time or place you commit the treason against him called ad- ultery. See that you give no favor to another; since this, my dear and much-love- d daughter, is to fall into a pit without bottom,"from which there will be no escape. According to the custom of the world, if it shall be known, for this crime they will kill you, they v will throw you into the street, for an example to all the people, where your head will be crushed and dragged upon the ground. Of these says a proverb, "You will be stoned and dragged upon the earth, and others will take warning at your death." From this will arise a stain and dishonor upon our ancestors, the nobles andx senators from whom we are descended. You will tarnish their illustrious fame, , and their glory, by the filthiness and impurity of your sin. You will likewise, lose your reputation,1, " your nobility, and honor of birth; your name will be forgotten and abhorred. Of you will it be said that you were buried in the dust of your sins. And remember, my daughter, that, though no man shall see you, nor your husband ever know what happens; God, ivho is in every place sea you, will be angry with you, and will also excite the indignation of the people against you, and shall be avenged upon you as he shall see fit. By his command, you shall either be maimed, or struck blind, or your body will wither, or you will come to extreme poverty; for daring to injure your husband. Or perhaps he will give you to death, and put you under his feet, sending you to the place ot torment. ' Oar Lord is compassionate; but, if you commit treason" against your, husband, God, who is inevrey place, shall take vengeance on your sins, and will permit you to have neither contentment, nor repose, nor a peaceful life; and he will excite your husband to be always unkind towards you, and always to spea to 4he-road.- . i father, and reflect glory on U3 by your good Mav GnA Tronpr von. mv firf.Vom and may you come to God, who, is in every - Jo - life. ..- T uun, iuuicwj,n mail ru;i aire.
