4 Sing not nor hum in thy Mouth, while thou art in Company.
5 Stand not wriggling with thy Body hither and thither, but steady, and upright.
6 Play not wantonly like a Mimick, with thy Fingers or Feet.
7 In coughing or sneezing, make as little Noise as possible.
8 If thou canst not avoid Yawning, shut thy Mouth with thine Hand or Handkerchief before it, turning thy Face aside.
9 When thou blowest thy Nose, let thy Handkerchief be used, and make not a Noise in so doing.
10 Gnaw not thy Nails, pick them not, nor bite them with thy Teeth.
11 Spit not in the Room, but in the Corner, and rub it with thy Foot, or rather go out and do it abroad.
12 Lean not on the Chair of a Superiour standing behind him.
13 Spit not upon the Fire, nor sit too wide with thy Knees at it.
14 Sit not with thy Legs crossed, but keep them firm and settled and thy Feet even.
