Ecclesiasticus · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph
1If you be made the master of a feast, lift not thyself up, but be among them as one of the rest; take diligent care for them, and so sit down.
2And when you have done all your office, take your place, that you may be merry with them, and receive a crown for your well ordering of the feast.
