Be Lowly Wise: Think Only What Concerns

Let None Henceforth Seek Needless Cause To Approve The Faith They Owe; When Earnestly They Seek Such Proof, Conclude, They Then Begin To Fail.

I Was All Ear, And Took In Strains That Might Create A Soul Under The Ribs Of Death.

Rocks Whereon Greatest Men Have Oftest Wreck'd.

Flowers Of All Hue, And Without Thorn The Rose.

O Impotence Of Mind, In Body Strong! But What Is Strength Without A Double Share Of Wisdom, Vast, Unwieldy, Burdensome, Proudly Secure, Yet Liable To Fall By Weakest Subtleties, Not Made To Rule, But To Subserve Where Wisdom Bears Command.
