Moral emblems : with aphorisms, adages, and proverbs, of all ages and nations, from Jacob Cats and Robert Farlie : with illustrations freely rendered, from designs found in their works . daily workOf nature, her Vocation : If she form.\ Man, she loses byt; tis too expensive ;Twould make ten Fools : A Mans a Prodigy. , ( .Sot na assc/. d(ftofle pour ftre bon. — Rochefoli A WAGER IS A FOOUS AROUMENT. HE THAT TEACHES HIMSELF UCH like as wine the nurfe of Poets veine, When prifon-like the cafke doth it conteine;Farre from the bottome while you draw the wine,You will it find more plenteous and more fine ;But when you come to dreg, no wine abounds,Both lead and worft remaineth in the grounds:Such like the fhining of a candle we fee,Which kindled once burnes not ftill equally ;At firft it givs greater and clearer light,And is more pleafant both to fmell and fight;But when it comes to fnufFe and even fpenf,It fhineth lefle, and gives a filthy fent. The candle and wines our life, which, in its prime,Doth flourifh more, and hath more hope of time;But when with muftie age our life many forrowes have we, and few dayes.
