About this book

Watching Out for the Tongue A tremendous treatment The Government of the Tongue by Richard Allestree is justly reputed as one of the most important parts of the human body. So slippery that it easily deceives a half-hearted or heedless guard. Allestree skillfully unfolds the manifold abuse of speech, lying, uncharitable truth, flattery, boasting and obscenity. He concludes with ten much-needed specific lessons on how to control and use the tongue as an instrument to bring honor to God! Will leave you tongue-tied!
