Humanity.

Humanitas.

Men are made
for one another’s good;
therefore let them be kind.		Homines facti sunt
ad mutua commoda;
ergò sint humani.
Be thou sweet and lovely
in thy Countenance, 1.
gentle and civil
in thy Behaviour and Manners, 2.
affable and true spoken
with thy Mouth, 3.
affectionate and candid
in thy Heart, 4.		Sis suavis & amabilis
Vultu, 1.
comis & urbanus
Gestu ac Moribus, 2.
affabilis & verax,
Ore, 3.
candens & candidus
Corde, 4.
So love,
and so shalt thou be loved;
and there will be
a mutual Friendship, 5.
as that of Turtle-doves, 6.
hearty, gentle,
and wishing well on both parts.		Sic ama,
sic amaberis;
& fiat
mutua Amicitia, 5.
ceu Turturum, 6.
concors, mansueta,
& benevola utrinque.
Froward Men are
hateful, teasty, unpleasant.
contentious, angry, 7.
cruel, 8.
and implacable,
(rather Wolves and Lions,
than Men)
and such as fall out
among themselves,
hereupon
they fight in a Duel, 9.		Morosi homines, sunt
odiosi, torvi, illepidi.
contentiosi, iracundi, 7.
crudeles, 8.
ac implacabiles,
(magis Lupi & Leones,
quàm homines)
& inter se
discordes,
hinc
confligunt Duelle, 9.
Envy, 10.
wishing ill to others,
pineth away her self.		Invidia, 10.
malè cupiendo aliis,
conficit seipsam.

[ CXVI.]

Justice.

Justitia.

Justice, 1.
is painted, sitting
on a square stone, 2. for
she ought to be immoveable;
with hood-winked eyes, 3.
that she may not respect
persons;
stopping the left ear, 4.
to be reserved
for the other party;		Justitia, 1.
pingitur, sedens
in lapide quadrato, 2. nam
decet esse immobilis;
obvelatis oculis, 3.
ad non respiciendum
personas;
claudens aurem sinistram, 4.
reservandam
alteri parti;
Holding in her right Hand
a Sword, 5.
and a Bridle, 6.
to punish
and restrain evil men;		Tenens dextrâ
Gladium, 5.
& Frænum, 6.
ad puniendum
& coërcendum malos;
Besides,
a pair of Balances, 7.
in the right Scale, 8. whereof
Deserts,
and in the left, 9.
Rewards being put,
are made even one with another,
and so good Men
are incited to virtue,
as it were with Spurs, 10.		Præterea,
Stateram, 7.
cujus dextræ Lanci, 8.
Merita,
Sinistræ, 9.
Præmia imposita,
sibi invicem exequantur,
atque ita boni
incitantur ad virtutem,
ceu Calcaribus, 10.
In Bargains, 11.
let Men deal candidly,
let them stand to their
Covenants and Promises;
let that which is given one to keep,
and that which is lent,
be restored:
let no man be pillaged, 12.
or hurt, 13.
let every one have his own:
these are the precepts
of Justice.		In Contractibus, 11.
candidè agatur:
stetur
Pactis & Promissis;
Depositum,
& Mutuum,
reddantur:
nemo expiletur, 12.
aut lædatur, 13.
suum cuique tribuatur:
hæc sunt præcepta
Justitiæ.
Such things as these
are forbidden
in God’s 5th. and 7th.
Cammandment,
and deservedly punish’d
on the Gallows and the Wheel, 14.		Talia
prohibentur,
quinto & septimo Dei
Præcepto,
& merito puniuntur
Cruce ac Rotâ, 14.
