be_v both_o good_a and_o profitable_a for_o the_o hunter_n very_o the_o covetous_a rich_a man_n live_v continual_o in_o great_a suspicion_n &_o fear_n lest_o that_o his_o substance_n be_v take_v from_o he_o or_o that_o he_o be_v beguile_v of_o it_o or_o force_v to_o depart_v with_o it_o against_o his_o will_n so_o that_o every_o shadow_n seem_v a_o bugbear_n unto_o he_o every_o little_a stir_v in_o the_o house_n disquiet_v he_o so_o that_o both_o at_o home_n in_o his_o chamber_n and_o abroad_o in_o his_o journey_n he_o be_v never_o without_o suspicion_n not_o unlike_o the_o man_n that_o be_v jealous_a of_o some_o woman_n who_o he_o love_v whereas_o the_o poor_a man_n not_o have_v his_o breast_n load_v with_o such_o fear_n and_o feel_v himself_o to_o be_v light_n in_o his_o journey_n stand_v not_o in_o doubt_n to_o be_v rob_v as_o that_o common_a verse_n say_v the_o man_n that_o travel_v by_o the_o way_n no_o wealth_n with_o he_o do_v bear_v amid_o the_o troop_n of_o thief_n may_v sing_v not_o have_v cause_n of_o fear_n and_o doubtless_o if_o it_o be_v well_o consider_v of_o the_o poor_a man_n have_v but_o one_o care_n which_o be_v to_o procure_v a_o little_a sustenance_n wherewith_o to_o live_v but_o the_o rich_a man_n have_v three_o thought_n and_o care_n together_o the_o one_o to_o conserve_v the_o riches_n that_o he_o have_v the_o other_o how_o to_o increase_v they_o the_o three_o how_o to_o dispose_v they_o through_o which_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o poor_a man_n be_v replenish_v with_o great_a hope_n than_o fear_n and_o of_o the_o other_o part_n the_o rich_a man_n be_v assail_v more_o with_o fear_n than_o hope_n he_o always_o hope_v to_o change_v his_o poor_a estate_n and_o miserable_a fortune_n into_o the_o better_a be_v already_o place_v in_o the_o low_a degree_n that_o defilus_n say_v w●ll_n the_o man_n that_o be_v most_o poor_a most_o happy_a be_v of_o all_o for_o that_o he_o never_o fear_v in_o worse_a estate_n to_o fall_v this_o always_o doubt_v least_o that_o his_o sweet_a will_v be_v transform_v into_o sour_a through_o which_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o poor_a feel_v a_o great_a tranquillity_n in_o his_o mind_n be_v replenish_v with_o hope_n then_o do_v the_o scotfree_a be_v surprise_v with_o fear_n what_o far_o that_o poverty_n bring_v forth_o more_o worthy_a effect_n than_o riches_n not_o only_o in_o itself_o but_o in_o other_o also_o for_o poverty_n raise_v pity_n &_o compassion_n in_o other_o which_o be_v most_o beautiful_a virtue_n in_o man_n mind_n but_o riches_n inflame_v and_o stir_v they_o up_o to_o envy_n which_o be_v a_o most_o wicked_a vice_n wherefore_o if_o good_a effect_n come_v of_o good_a cause_n and_o nanghtie_a of_o naughty_a cause_n it_o be_v very_o likely_a that_o poverty_n be_v more_o virtuous_a that_o engender_v virtue_n then_o be_v riches_n that_o produce_v vice_n in_o other_o what_o more_o shall_v i_o say_v that_o riches_n procure_v delight_n delight_n tenderness_n and_o delicacy_n of_o the_o body_n tenderness_n and_o delicacy_n cause_v weakness_n and_o faintness_n through_o which_o it_o happen_v that_o rich_a man_n be_v less_o able_a to_o tolerate_v travail_n heat_n and_o cold_a and_o other_o human_a discommodity_n than_o the_o poor_a be_v who_o by_o a_o patience_n perforce_o be_v teach_v to_o endure_v all_o labour_n and_o travel_n and_o every_o little_a impression_n of_o the_o air_n neither_o be_v bring_v down_o with_o it_o every_o little_a trifle_a disease_n as_o the_o rich_a be_v what_o far_o riches_n engender_v faintness_n of_o courage_n in_o the_o possessor_n of_o they_o in_o that_o for_o fear_n of_o abandon_v of_o they_o they_o will_v not_o adventure_v to_o hazard_v themselves_o in_o any_o danger_n neither_o for_o their_o friend_n nor_o for_o their_o kindred_n nor_o country_n neither_o yet_o for_o themselves_o but_o be_v always_o of_o a_o timorous_a and_o fearful_a mind_n but_o the_o poor_a man_n not_o draw_v back_o with_o the_o jealousy_n of_o this_o worldly_a pelf_n show_v his_o valour_n bold_o and_o courageous_o expose_v himself_o to_o peril_n and_o danger_n for_o the_o love_n of_o his_o friend_n &_o country_n what_o beside_o this_o abundant_a riches_n make_v man_n sluggish_a not_o suffer_v they_o to_o awake_v to_o any_o good_a exercise_n whereas_o poverty_n seldom_o permit_v they_o to_o stand_v drowsy_a and_o idle_a but_o awaken_v they_o to_o beautiful_a invention_n and_o laudable_a travel_n but_o let_v we_o consider_v one_o point_n that_o touch_v rich_a man_n to_o the_o quick_a but_o the_o poor_a nothing_o so_o much_o all_o man_n both_o by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o nature_n of_o necessity_n must_v once_o die_v but_o he_o that_o abound_v in_o riches_n with_o what_o grief_n and_o torment_n do_v he_o depart_v this_o life_n he_o will_v not_o leave_v his_o fair_a house_n his_o gallant_a village_n his_o costly_a apparel_n his_o brave_a horse_n his_o bright_a silver_n his_o glitter_a gold_n and_o other_o infinite_a commodity_n and_o delight_n that_o he_o taste_v in_o this_o world_n which_o see_v that_o he_o must_v needs_o forgo_v he_o be_v out_o of_o measure_n vex_v and_o through_o inward_a grief_n kill_v himself_o before_o the_o hour_n of_o his_o death_n approach_v but_o the_o poor_a man_n who_o take_v little_a joy_n in_o this_o world_n make_v no_o great_a reckon_n to_o leave_v it_o not_o taste_v that_o bitter_a sorrow_n with_o die_v which_o the_o rich_a man_n feel_v hope_v to_o enjoy_v a_o better_a life_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v the_o poor_a also_o in_o this_o world_n have_v great_a consolation_n and_o it_o be_v no_o small_a comfort_n unto_o they_o to_o think_v that_o the_o rich_a will_n they_o will_v they_o must_v die_v and_o that_o they_o be_v force_v in_o spite_n of_o their_o tooth_n to_o forgo_v all_o their_o substance_n neither_o will_v we_o omit_v to_o say_v that_o sometime_o honest_a poverty_n bring_v with_o it_o more_o liberty_n &_o contentment_n of_o life_n then_o unmeasurable_a riches_n for_o that_o be_v frank_a and_o free_a &_o this_o be_v tie_v and_o bind_v to_o respect_n and_o suspicion_n so_o that_o now_o we_o perceive_v that_o all_o be_v not_o pleasant_a &_o delightful_a that_o be_v find_v in_o riches_n nor_o all_o unsavery_a and_o bitter_a that_o be_v try_v in_o poverty_n but_o in_o this_o much_o of_o the_o sweet_a and_o in_o the_o other_o not_o a_o little_a of_o the_o sour_a in_o both_o see_v feel_v and_o taste_v now_o let_v we_o proceed_v a_o little_a far_o and_o if_o you_o think_v it_o good_a let_v it_o be_v grant_v that_o poverty_n be_v evil_a and_o contemptuous_a and_o have_v in_o it_o no_o consolation_n but_o true_o it_o have_v in_o it_o all_o these_o comfort_n of_o which_o we_o have_v before_o make_v mention_n which_o be_v well_o taste_v of_o the_o poor_a man_n he_o shall_v feel_v no_o little_a contentment_n in_o his_o poverty_n let_v this_o be_v consider_v far_o that_o he_o be_v not_o only_o poor_a &_o that_o this_o evil_n be_v not_o take_v from_o all_o other_o and_o cast_v on_o he_o alone_o but_o the_o number_n of_o the_o poor_a be_v unnumerable_a when_o as_o of_o the_o scotfree_a there_o be_v very_o few_o through_o which_o if_o to_o have_v company_n in_o one_o adversity_n make_v the_o evil_a to_o seem_v the_o less_o how_o light_n shall_v the_o evil_a of_o poverty_n be_v the_o poor_a man_n have_v so_o great_a a_o number_n of_o other_o poor_a man_n to_o associate_v he_o let_v we_o consider_v far_o that_o poverty_n do_v not_o always_o pinch_n but_o only_o then_o when_o he_o feel_v the_o want_n of_o some_o thing_n that_o he_o great_o need_v it_o be_v not_o like_o a_o quotidian_a agewe_n which_o while_o it_o endure_v always_o vex_v and_o torment_v a_o man_n but_o this_o yéelde_n the_o rest_n and_o repose_v first_o while_o thou_o sléepe_a thou_o have_v no_o feel_v of_o she_o whereof_o this_o ancient_a proverb_n take_v his_o original_n that_o in_o one_o half_a of_o their_o life_n there_o be_v no_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o happy_a and_o unfortunate_a further_o many_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n a_o man_n think_v not_o of_o it_o but_o live_v joyful_o as_o if_o he_o be_v rich_a and_o in_o good_a case_n i_o have_v see_v many_o poor_a man_n lead_v their_o life_n so_o iocund_o as_o do_v never_o king_n nor_o emperor_n on_o the_o other_o side_n i_o have_v know_v many_o rich_a man_n have_v their_o mind_n always_o trouble_v and_o disquiet_v as_o if_o they_o be_v wrap_v in_o extreme_a want_n and_o misery_n never_o to_o laugh_v never_o to_o be_v gladsome_a nor_o joyful_a whereby_o i_o have_v note_v that_o the_o true_a tranquillity_n of_o the_o mind_n spring_v not_o of_o thing_n that_o be_v without_o we_o but_o of_o that_o delectable_a music_n and_o well_o temper_a harmony_n of_o the_o human_a affection_n
