But understood it better by report

Than practice: he nothing took from thence

But the kings favour for his recompence.

Who, for religion or his countreys good,

Neither his honour valued, nor his blood.

Rich in the worlds opinion, and mens praise,

And full in all we could desire, but days.

He that is warn’d of this, and shall forbear

To vent a sigh for him, or shed a tear,

May he live long scorn’d, and unpitied fall,
