If they[347] could learne by others to bee wise,
Or else eschewe the daungers of their[348] face:
If once they[349] could the golden meane imbrace,
Or banish quite ambition from their[350] breast,
They[351] neuer neede to recke or reape vnrest.

They[353] deeme on earth is all the greatest hap:[354]
They[355] nothing feare the hurt of falling downe,
Or little rome in Lady Fortune’s lap.
