Coverdale(i)
17 Who so goeth by and medleth with other mens strife, he is like one yt taketh a dogg by ye eares.
18 Like as one shuteth deadly arowes and dartes out of a preuy place, euen so doth a dyssembler with his neghboure,
19 And then sayeth he: I dyd it but in sporte.
20 Where no wodd is, there the fyre goeth out: and where the bacbyter is taken awaye, there the strife ceaseth.
21 Coles kyndle heate, and wodd ye fyre: euen so doth a braulinge felowe stere vp variaunce.
22 A slaunderers wordes are like flatery, but they pearse ye inwarde partes of ye body.
