First, I like chocolate.
Secondly, there is evidence that chocolate, in small quantities can be good for you.
Third, I think it should be a stand-alone food group.
Lastly, I make it a point to eat a little bit of chocolate every day.

"Second."
It makes no sense to say "firstly," "secondly," "thirdly," "fifthly," "sixthly," etc. In fact, it sounds downright silly.

Either firstly, secondly, thirdly and lastly or first, second, third and last.
Keep it consistent.

they should either all read first, second, third, last...these are adjectives
or firstly, secondly, thirdly, lastly...these are adverbs
