A man promiseth for his neighbour; and when he hath lost reverence, that is, shamefastness before God and man, the borrower shall be forsaken of (or by) him. Worst [or Most shrewd (or depraved)] promise, by which the neighbour promised falsely to deliver his borrow, hath lost [or spoiled] many loving men, and hath moved them as the waves of the sea. It going in compass made mighty men to pass over [or to go out (or to go away)]; and (then) they wandered about among alien folks.
