A Collection of Emblemes, Ancient and Moderne / Quickened With Metrical Illustrations, Both Morall and Divine, Etc. - George Wither

If, to preferment thou wilt rise,

Thou must not Arts, nor Armes, despise;

Nor so in one of these delight,

That, thou the other, wholly sleight.

Nor, to thy Body be inclin'd,

So much, as to neglect thy Minde.

This, by thine Emblem, thou mayst learne;

And, much thy good it may concerne.
