Crumbs of Wisdom

Wulfiic of Creigull

Lay a clean trencher before you, and when your pottage is brought, take your spoon and eat quietly; and do not leave your spoon in the dish, I pray you. Lay salt honestly on your trencher, for that is courtesy. Do not put the meat off your trencher into the dish, but get a voider and empty it into that. Do not play with the spoon, or your trencher, or your knife; but lead your life in cleanliness and honest manners. Heap not thy trencher high with many morsels, And from blackness always keep thy nails. (Advice to a Child, 1500)
