If the world is to go well, / Then everyone must stand in his place, / The man at work, the woman at home; / If order is overturned, it is not well
Learn from these prints, youth, to practice the lovely virtue, / And shun what, even in the least, harms duty and piety; / Then you will always have human love to expect on this earth, / And after this the most glorious reward from God, your trust
