Moral emblems, with aphorisms, adages, and proverbs, of all ages ...

TOO MUCH COURTESY, TOO MUCH CRAFT.
FY Light into a fnuffe is almoft turn'd,
And now the candle to fmoaking afhes burn'd,
Behold another Light ftands ready by,
Which to enjoy my place will make me dye.
Yet not unpunim'd it' puts out my breath,
My very ames doe revenge my death.
So doth the fonne his Father make away,
If not with fword, with griefe, before his day,
That he his Fathers goods and meanes may joy,
Which Nemefis revenging doth convoy.
For oft the fpendthrifts goods fo evill gotten
Are fpent before his Fathers bones are rotten.
FAR LIE'S Emblems.
DO BUSINESS, BUT BE NOT A SLAVE TO IT.
