a_o madness_n and_o to_o wail_v for_o wealth_n a_o point_n of_o mere_a folly_n but_o it_o be_v ferragus_n such_o a_o misery_n as_o the_o sturdy_a stoike_v themselves_o which_o be_v never_o move_v with_o adversity_n do_v only_o dread_a to_o be_v strike_v with_o this_o despiteful_a dart_n of_o calamity_n yet_o amid_o this_o my_o great_a misfortune_n thy_o friendly_a affection_n be_v such_o a_o

be_v the_o cross_n wherewith_o i_o be_o afflict_v for_o i_o must_v confess_v unto_o thou_o by_o the_o law_n of_o friendship_n that_o through_o the_o displeasure_n of_o the_o emperor_n i_o be_o

it_o be_v not_o the_o loss_n of_o my_o land_n or_o live_a ferragus_n which_o so_o molest_v my_o mind_n but_o the_o want_n of_o my_o faithful_a and_o familiar_a friend_n for_o wealth_n may_v be_v get_v

wise_a man_n remain_v he_o dwell_v in_o his_o own_o home_n for_o nature_n have_v appoint_v the_o selfsame_o law_n to_o every_o place_n neither_o be_v she_o contrary_a to_o herself_o in_o the_o further_a part_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v no_o place_n where_o the_o fire_n be_v cold_a and_o the_o water_n hot_a the_o air_n heavy_a and_o the_o earth_n light_n neither_o have_v wit_n or_o learning_n less_o force_n in_o india_n than_o in_o italy_n and_o virtue_n be_v have_v in_o reputation_n as_o well_o in_o the_o north_n as_o in_o the_o south_n so_o that_o anacharsis_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v unaquaeque_fw-la patria_fw-la sapienti_fw-la patria_fw-la but_o perhaps_o pharicles_n thou_o will_v object_v thy_o great_a possession_n which_o thou_o have_v lose_v and_o how_o thou_o be_v of_o more_o account_n for_o thy_o birth_n and_o parentage_n among_o thy_o own_o than_o ever_o thou_o shall_v be_v among_o stranger_n but_o i_o say_v pharicles_n that_o coriolanus_n be_v more_o belove_v of_o the_o volscian_n among_o who_o he_o live_v in_o exile_n than_o of_o the_o roman_n with_o who_o he_o be_v a_o citizen_n alcibiades_n be_v banish_v by_o the_o athenian_n become_v chief_a captain_n of_o the_o army_n of_o the_o lacedaemonian_n and_o hannibal_n be_v better_o entertain_v by_o king_n antiochus_n than_o with_o his_o own_o subject_n in_o carthage_n and_o i_o dare_v say_v pharicles_n thou_o be_v never_o more_o famous_a in_o padua_n than_o thou_o be_v here_o in_o saragossa_n yea_o and_o the_o more_o to_o mitigate_v thy_o misery_n consider_v with_o thyself_o that_o there_o be_v no_o

remain_v long_o time_n a_o poore-banished_n prisoner_n these_o pharicles_n without_o recite_v any_o more_o be_v sufficient_a consider_v their_o crown_n kingdom_n and_o majesty_n to_o prove_v that_o fortune_n have_v not_o only_o offer_v the_o like_a mishap_n to_o other_o but_o also_o have_v not_o do_v so_o great_a despite_n unto_o thou_o as_o be_v in_o her_o power_n to_o have_v do_v but_o perhaps_o pharicles_n thou_o will_v reply_v that_o these_o mighty_a monarch_n be_v not_o in_o the_o same_o predicament_n for_o they_o be_v banish_v their_o kingdom_n by_o open_a enemy_n and_o thou_o
