Sirach 31:18

¹⁶Eat as it becometh a man, those things which are set before thee; and devour note, lest thou be hated.

¹⁷Leave off first for manners’ sake; and be not unsatiable, lest thou offend.

— Sirach 31:18 —

¹⁹A very little is sufficient for a man well nurtured, and he fetcheth not his wind short upon his bed.

²⁰Sound sleep cometh of moderate eating: he riseth early, and his wits are with him: but the pain of watching, and choler, and pangs of the belly, are with an unsatiable man.
