TO Plutarch did the Emperour Traiane write,
Only to counsell him what he should doe.
The Emperour Galba said; All his mishaps
Ensued, because he would not be aduis'de.
Demetrius of Maccdon would say:
Reprooue me, when I councell doe refuse.
Verres had neuer fallen in miscrie,
But that good counsell alwaies he despis'd.
Solon bad wealthie Croesus be aduis'd,
For counsell was more worth than all his wealth.
Philo••enus the Poet did esteeme
Nothing so precious as discreete aduise.
