THE MORE YOU HAVE THE MORE YOU DESIRE. SHINED brightly whilft I flood firmely feated gave a perfeft light; But after that mifchance did me furprife, I am caft downe and know not how to rife. Helpe, helpe, who fees my cafe, now fuccour me, So, as before, my Light fhall glorious be. A man may fall, this brittle life of oursIs fubjedt to more chances than to houres :Or fortune falfe, or errours flippery fallSuffers us not, conftant to proove at all:Happy is he who falling findes a man,Much like a God, fupporting what he hurt he learning gaines, he wifer growes,And with the weary Oxe more warily goes.
