| By adversity are wrought the greatest works of admiration, and all the fair examples of renown, out of distress and misery are grown. | And for the few that only lend their ear, That few is all the world. | The stars that have most glory have no rest. | Custom, that is before all law; Nature, that is above all art. | We come to know best what men are, in their worse jeopardizes. | Beauty, sweet love, is like the morning dew, Whose short refresh upon tender green, Cheers for a time, but till the sun doth show And straight is gone, as it had never been. | Striving to tell his woes, words would not come; For light cares speak, when mighty griefs are dumb. | The wise are above books. | Love is a sickness full of woes, All remedies refusing; A plant that with most cutting grows, Most barren with best using.
