lightning_n be_v say_v to_o be_v of_o such_o power_n that_o meet_v with_o strong_a and_o firm_o unite_a thing_n it_o melt_v or_o break_v or_o change_v they_o as_o by_o experience_n have_v be_v see_v in_o money_n which_o have_v be_v melt_v in_o man_n purse_n and_o sword_n break_v in_o their_o scabbard_n and_o bear_v turn_v in_o barrel_n so_o do_v pleasure_n plant_v most_o common_o her_o

but_o short_a last_o not_o to_o be_v long_o lightning_n fall_v from_o heaven_n so_o do_v pleasure_n make_v they_o that_o use_v it_o wherefore_o the_o prophet_n esay_n he_o say_v that_o sathan_n fall_v from_o heaven_n like_o lightning_n as_o i_o tell_v you_o that_o it_o be_v short_a so_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o bad_a end_n than_o which_o architas_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v that_o god_n in_o give_v it_o give_v the_o great_a plague_n and_o mischief_n unto_o man_n that_o can_v be_v devise_v for_o pleasure_n make_v beast_n and_o man_n all_o one_o wherefore_o my_o very_a good_a lord_n this_o must_v be_v your_o last_o end_n though_o i_o name_v it_o in_o the_o former_a place_n as_o oft_o time_n the_o worst_a go_v first_o to_o stand_v here_o to_o dilate_v how_o your_o lordship_n may_v receive_v pleasure_n by_o travail_v be_v to_o teach_v your_o eye_n to_o see_v and_o your_o ear_n to_o hear_v a_o thing_n both_o needless_a and_o foolish_a for_o there_o be_v none_o that_o have_v his_o sight_n

far_a direction_n and_o some_o more_o extraordinary_a conceit_n and_o labour_n if_o therefore_o you_o will_v be_v a_o profitable_a traveller_n and_o come_v home_o better_a than_o you_o go_v out_o which_o i_o know_v be_v your_o honourable_a resolution_n you_o must_v seek_v to_o be_v enrich_v with_o three_o thing_n three_o the_o godly_a most_o precious_a pearl_n in_o the_o world_n they_o be_v wisdom_n or_o policy_n knowledge_n or_o learning_n manner_n or_o behaviour_n as_o for_o wisdom_n homer_n the_o wise_a in_o my_o fancy_n not_o only_o of_o all_o poet_n but_o of_o all_o heathen_a man_n he_o i_o say_v affirm_v that_o it_o be_v have_v and_o increase_v very_o much_o by_o right_n travail_v who_o give_v every_o where_o no_o other_o or_o no_o great_a reason_n of_o the_o great_a sapience_n

all_o traveller_n do_v glad_o report_v great_a praise_n of_o ulysses_n for_o that_o he_o know_v many_o man_n manner_n and_o see_v many_o city_n and_o in_o sooth_n the_o learned_a poet_n say_v right_o well_o for_o of_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n i_o know_v nothing_o more_o available_a to_o the_o attain_n of_o true_a wisdom_n and_o sound_a discretion_n than_o the_o sight_n consideration_n and_o knowledge_n of_o sundry_a rite_n manner_n policy_n and_o government_n especial_o if_o you_o mark_v they_o diligent_o compare_v they_o together_o perfect_o and_o apply_v they_o to_o your_o purpose_n effectual_o which_o of_o all_o love_v i_o desire_v your_o honour_n to_o do_v it_o be_v enough_o that_o you_o see_v strange_a ordinance_n in_o other_o land_n but_o you_o must_v see_v into_o they_o and_o mark_v the_o reason_n and_o ground_n of_o they_o think_v it_o not_o sufficient_a to_o seek_v into_o foreign_a estate_n and_o custom_n unless_o you_o search_v also_o into_o the_o use_n and_o abuse_v of_o they_o now_o this_o search_n and_o inquisition_n i_o speak_v of_o be_v to_o be_v practise_v either_o by_o read_v the_o several_a history_n of_o those_o nation_n where_o you_o be_v to_o travel_v for_o every_o particular_a country_n have_v his_o peculiar_a story_n and_o chronicle_n where_o you_o shall_v find_v the_o nature_n manner_n and_o behaviour_n of_o the_o people_n the_o city_n the_o way_n and_o the_o commodity_n of_o the_o country_n set_v down_o or_o else_o by_o hear_v for_o see_v no_o story_n as_o no_o law_n can_v comprise_v every_o particular_a thing_n therefore_o to_o attain_v to_o a_o more_o exact_a and_o perfect_a knowledge_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v amiss_o for_o your_o lordship_n to_o talk_v with_o the_o learned_a of_o the_o land_n where_o you_o go_v for_o albeit_o wisdom_n and_o safety_n do_v wish_v i_o to_o counsel_v you_o to_o silence_n in_o travel_v yet_o i_o think_v it_o not_o amiss_o though_o you_o give_v the_o rain_n now_o and_o then_o to_o that_o unbrideled_a member_n the_o tongue_n which_o you_o may_v use_v as_o occasion_n shall_v serve_v both_o on_o the_o way_n by_o sea_n and_o by_o land_n and_o also_o at_o and_o after_o meal_n according_a to_o that_o laudable_a custom_n which_o i_o be_o privy_a to_o be_v use_v by_o yourself_o and_o the_o virtuous_a about_o you_o at_o your_o own_o table_n and_o may_v i_o have_v leave_v to_o direct_v you_o also_o because_o i_o have_v begin_v to_o be_v bold_a in_o the_o subject_n of_o your_o talk_n in_o my_o opinion_n nothing_o be_v more_o meet_a for_o one_o of_o your_o honourable_a estate_n then_o to_o question_n and_o discourse_n of_o the_o fashion_n law_n nobility_n and_o kind_a of_o warfare_n of_o the_o people_n where_o you_o travel_v as_o do_v the_o great_a alexander_n who_o when_o any_o embassador_n resort_v to_o king_n philip_n his_o father_n from_o far_a country_n and_o great_a potentate_n be_v wont_v to_o demand_n of_o they_o what_o weapon_n they_o use_v in_o war_n what_o law_n in_o peace_n how_o they_o govern_v their_o city_n but_o especial_o how_o they_o order_v their_o battle_n thus_o if_o you_o employ_v your_o time_n in_o travel_n and_o apply_v yourself_o to_o imitate_v the_o worthy_a certain_o you_o shall_v find_v at_o your_o come_n home_o that_o you_o have_v take_v great_a profit_n though_o you_o know_v not_o how_o nor_o when_o as_o the_o clock_n go_v and_o we_o discern_v it_o not_o as_o man_n grow_v and_o we_o mark_v it_o not_o herb_n sprout_v out_o and_o we_o see_v not_o how_o nor_o when_o so_o do_v a_o man_n judgement_n wisdom_n and_o
