Michael Angelo Buonarroti

CHAPTER VI
20/62

Know that he who sees his father threatened or roughly handled is bound to risk his own life in this cause.

Enough, I tell you that you have nothing in the world; and if I hear the least thing about your goings on, I will come post-haste and show you your error, and teach you to waste your substance and set fire to houses and farms you have not earned.

Indeed, you are not where you think yourself to be.

If I come, I will open your eyes to what will make you weep hot tears, and let you know on what false grounds you found your pride.
"I have something else to say to you which I have not said before.
If you will endeavour to live rightly, and to honour and revere your father, I will help you like the rest, and make you able shortly to open a good shop.

If you do not do so, I shall come and settle your affairs in such a fashion that you will know what you are better than you ever did, and will understand what you have in the world, and it will be seen in every place where you may go.
