And some that languish in their speed

Are cherished by some favour's blaste;

Some rest in other's cutting out

The fame by whom themselves are made;

Some fetch a compass farr about,

And secretly the marke invade.

Some get by knocks, and so advance

Their fortune by a boysterous aime:

And some, who have the sweetest chance,

Their en'mies hit, and win the game.
