Three faces wears the doctor; when first sought

An angel’s—and a god’s the cure half wrought:

But when, that cure complete, he seeks his fee,

The devil looks then less terrible than he.

Georgius Buchananus
TO ZOILUS

With industry I spread your praise,

With equal, you my censure blaze;

But, Zoilus, all in vain we do—

The world nor credits me nor you.
