30 Le lion, le héros des animaux, Ne reculant devant qui que ce soit;

31 Le cheval tout équipé; ou le bouc; Et le roi à qui personne ne résiste.

32 Si l’orgueil te pousse à des actes de folie, Et si tu as de mauvaises pensées, mets la main sur la bouche:

33 Car la pression du lait produit de la crème, La pression du nez produit du sang, Et la pression de la colère produit des querelles.
