per hoc.
This Naked Pourtraiture before thine Eye,
Is Wretched, helplesse MAN, MAN borne to Die:
On either side, an ANGELL doth protect him
As well from EVILL, as to GOOD direct him:
Th' one poynts to DEATH, the t'other to a CROVVNE;
Who THIS attaines, must tread the OTHER downe:
All which denotes the Briefe of MANS Estate,
That HEE'S to goe from HENCE, by THIS, to THAT.
