Metrodorus minde to the contrary.

WHat race of life run you? what trade will you assay? In Court is glory got, and wit encreaseth daie by daie. At home we take our ease, and beake our selues in rest: The feilds our nature doth refresh with pleasures of the best. On seas great gaine is got: the straunger, he shalbe Esteemed hauyng much, if not none knowes his lack but he. A wife will trim thy house, no wife then art thou free: Brood is a louely thyng, without thy life is loose to thee. Yong blods be strong, old syres in double honour dwell: Do way the choyse, no life, or soone to die, for all is well.
