POLICIE CI. If you suppresse your disposition for a time, it is policy to change and shew it selfe by degrees.

HEe that hath occasion to suspend the discovery of himselfe, and thinkes it no time to make himselfe knowne, let him take heed when hee hath ob∣tained what he desired, that hee change not too suddainly, but that his alteration seeme rather a worke of the occasions which happen to him, and that hee seemes to change because things require it, else hee discovers his disguise and pretence to his dis∣honour, but in the other way like Job,

He even waites till his change come, Job 14. 14.
