| 1. A Gwyddon knows the nature and ways of his times. |
| 2. A Gwyddon knows what he knows and makes no other claims. |
| 3. He seeks to harm none, but, if faced with the necessary choice between two ills, he will seek the lesser. |
| 4. An evil doer must not be coddled, for if you do so, he will think you weak, and will seek to do even greater harm, having never been shown the just consequence of his former error. Therefore, punish error, but without malice, and quickly. |
| 5. Give not your living to thieves, but give to the workman his honest due. |
| 6. Be gentle and kind to the helpless, whether animal or man. |
| 7. The Dark One seeks sacrifice of the living, and loves much blood. If you serve Her, She will ever demand more and more until She calls for you in some foul way. Her favors are not won easily.
Be Warned! |
| 8. The Bright One demands nothing, but is greatly pleased with gifts of good deeds done in Her name. So, bring Her no dead thing, but things of beauty and love. |
| 9. Place Wisdom first in your life rather than Love, for Love without Wisdom is often hurtful, but temper Wisdom with Love. |
| 10. A Gwyddon seeks to know two things, and these are: What he is, and what deity is. But, here is a clue for the seeker. If he comes to know the answer to either of these, he will know also the other. |
| 11. Turn away no one who comes to you seeking the Ancient Knowledge, even if you know he be evil. For, if we teach only the good ones, how shall the ones in error ever change their ways? But, if they misuse the Ancient Wisdom, it will draw the Dark One to them and they will bring Death upon themselves if they change not. |
| 12. All things can be done by remembering who you really are. |
| 13. A Gwyddon who once knew the way and goes astray is like one who is up to his knees in mud. For once you have known Her, all else is blight. |
| 14. Seek not more than you need, and you shall ever have enough, and ever abound. |
