The twig dooth bende as Boreas blastes dooth[1234] blow,
So man dooth walke euen as his minde dooth moue:
Then happy hee who hath a minde to know
Such thinges as be the best for his behoue:
No doubt the minde which vertuous actes dooth loue,
Dooth make a man euen Cæsar to surpasse
For noble deedes, who prince of prowesse was.

But he who hath his minde to mischiefe bent,
All his delight from vertue dooth decline,
