Cacoethes leaden legacy: or His schoole of ill manners : wherein it is fainedly supposed that Cacoethes being ready to die, did bequeath this leaden legacy of counsell to his two sons, Slovanio and Nerebeegood, instructing them in many points of slovary and ill husbandry: but it is really intended, that others should follow that which is contrary to his instructions, and learne by these points of slovanry and ill husbandry, how to avoid all ill manners. Cujus contrarium verum est. Here many ill points delivered be, but thou must learne the contrarie: for what is bidden to be done, thou must learne hereby to shun.
