    XXIII.—Of Those Who are Everywhere Ready.

    While thou obeyest the belly, thou sayest that thou art innocent; and, as if courteously, makest thyself everywhere ready.  Woe to thee, foolish man! thou thyself lookest around upon death.  Thou seekest in a barbarous fashion to live without law.  Thou thyself hymnest thyself also to play upon a word, who feignest thyself simple.  I live in simplicity with such a one.  Thou believest that thou livest, whilst thou desirest to fill thy belly.  To sit down disgracefully of no account in thy house, ready for feasting, and to run away from precepts.  Or because thou believest not that God will judge the dead, thou foolishly makest thyself ruler of heaven instead of Him.  Thou regardest thy belly as if thou canst provide for it.  Thou seemest at one time to be profane, at another to be holy.  Thou appearest as a suppliant of God, under the aspect of a tyrant.  Thou shalt feel in thy fates by whose law thou art aided.
