When children are under their mother’s eye, she has an opportunity of fashioning their minds right.  Those who are grown up, should often call to mind the good teaching they received when children.  The many awful instances of promising characters that have been ruined by loose women, and love of wine, should warn everyone to avoid these evils.  Wine is to be used for helping or medicine.  Every creature of God is good, and wine, though abused, has its use.  By the same rule, due praise and punishment should be used as tools to grow confident and self-sufficient adults. All in authority should be more carefully judged than other men; and should be protectors of those who are unable or afraid to plead their own cause.  Our blessed Lord did not decline the bitterest dregs of the cup of sorrow put into his hands; but he puts the cup of consolation into the hands of his people, and causes those to rejoice who are in the deepest distress. The name Lemuel means “unto God” In Proverbs 31
