 * He that is, etc.
   Or, rather, as in the old translation "He that is despised,
   and is his own servant, is better than he that boasteth
   himself and wanteth bread;" with which the versions generally
   agree.  That is, it is better to be in lowness and obscurity,
   and to support oneself by manual labour, than to want the
   necessaries of life, through a foolish vanity, or the pride of
   birth, which refuses to labour.

 * despised.
