in taking revenge It is a wise mans part to fear his enemy though never so mean Laughing at men in misery is even an injury The judge is condemned when the guilty man is acquitted It is a kind part to pardon when he is sorry that is pardoned Boldnefs can do very much in doubtful things A guilty person condemns himself on the same day he offends So trust your friend that there be no room for an enemy An angry man thinks even advice to be a hainous crime He badly blames Neptune that again suffers shipwrack Honour with an unworthy person is instead of a disgrace When a new commendation is offered even the old is admitted The smart of his enemy is the remedy of him that is hurt Fortune is unconstant she quickly asks again what she hath given It is an universal law which bids Be born and dye Gain cannot be made without anothers loss Wantonness and praise do never agree The guilty person fears the Law and the innocent fortune Excess wants many things but covetousness all things Ingrateful persons especially teach men to be hard He threatneth many that doth a wrong to one All delay is distastful yet it makes men wise It is a bad cause which requires pity It is a happy mans lot to dye before he calleth death It is a miserable thing to be forced to keep that silent which you desire to speak That fortune is most miserable that wants an enemy He is to be called bad that is good for his own ends A bad man is then the worst when he feigns himself good When fear cometh sleep hath but seldom place Thou must needs dye but not so oft as thou wouldst It is badly done whatever is done with relying upon future He that sends a present to a dead man takes from himself and gives him nothing A master that is afraid of his servants is less than a servant A true heir is rather born than written Women out-strip men in bad counsel It is bad pleasure to use our selves to other folks things That is kept with a great deal of danger which pleaseth many The cure is bad when any thing of nature is lost Bad natures never need teaching To live without danger is not to know misery They live ill who think they shall always live By construing a foul word you will make it worse The patient deals badly with himself that makes the Physician his heir He is less deceived that is sooner denyed Goodness changeth it self which an injury provokes When a woman museth all alone she museth some mischief He that will do a shrewd turn will every where find an occasion A naughty natur'd man feeds on his own nature He ought to fear many whom many fear The greatest command is lost by badly commanding A woman that is married to many men doth not please many It is bad counsel which cannot be altered It is the best for an unfortunate person to do nothing The eyes would not offend at all if the mind could rule the eyes Esteem nothing thine own that may be altered A man doth lightly dye with the fall of a house that is afraid of the fall of it Thou know'st not what to wish or what to avoid the day so dallieth Danger is never overcome without danger There is no fortune so good of which thou may'st not complain We men dye better no where than where we had a mind to live A covetous man never wants an excuse to deny one The truth is lost with too much wrangling He is every day condemned that alwayes feareth The latter day is always the worse It is a ridiculous thing to destroy innocency in detestation of one that is nocent It is a piece of good turn if thou well deny what is desired It is a fond thing to fear what cannot be avoided A fearful man calls himself a wary man and a base fellow calls himself a good Husband By putting up an old injury thou maist avoid invitest a new one A covetous man as well wanteth what he hath as what he hath not O life that art long to one in misery and short to one in prosperity Mimi Publiani sive Senecae Proverbia ALienum est omne quicquid oprando evenit Ab alio expectes alteri quod feceris Animus vereri qui scit scit tutò aggredi

truth it cannot see 5 Slack not to spend when a just cause desires We must be somewhat free when time requires Rejoyce in little shun what is extream The ship rides safest in a little stream With what thou art asham'd disclose to none Lest many blame what thou dislik'st alone Conceit not that bad men their sins do gain For sins are sometimes hid and sometimes plain The strength of little men do not despise Whom Nature hath made weak she makes more wise When thou hast not thy match in time retreat We see the conquer'd oft the Victor beat Brabble not with him whom thou dost well know The greatest strife doth oft from least words grow Seek not by lot what God's intentions be He knows without thee what to do with thee Envy for gaudy state be sure to fear Which if it do not hurt is hard to bear

To make you stronger sometimes eat in measure We owe more to our health than to our pleasure The peoples censure never scorn alone Lest whilst thou slightest many thou please none Have great care of
