   1. Temperance: Eat not to dullness and drink not to elevation.
   2. Silence: Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself. Avoid
   trifling conversation.
   3. Order: Let all your things have their places. Let each part of your
   business have its time.
   4. Resolution: Resolve to perform what you ought. Perform without fail
   what you resolve.
   5. Frugality: Make no expense but to do good to others or yourself: i.e.
   Waste nothing.
   6. Industry: Lose no time. Be always employed in something useful. Cut
   off all unnecessary actions.
   7. Sincerity: Use no hurtful deceit. Think innocently and justly; and, if
   you speak, speak accordingly.
   8. Justice: Wrong none, by doing injuries or omitting the benefits that
   are your duty.
   9. Moderation: Avoid extremes. Forebear resenting injuries so much as you
   think they deserve.
   10. Cleanliness: Tolerate no uncleanness in body, clothes or habitation.
   11. Chastity: Rarely use venery but for health or offspring; Never to
   dullness, weakness, or the injury of your own or another's peace or
   reputation.
   12. Tranquility: Be not disturbed at trifles, or at accidents common or
   unavoidable.
   13. Humility: Imitate Jesus and Socrates.
