My only life in all poynts may suffise,

To shewe how base all baytes of fortune bee,

Which thawe like yse, through heate of enuie’s eyes,

Of[744] vicious deedes which much possessed mee:

Good hap with vice, long time cannot agree,[745]

Which bring best fortunes to the basest fall,

And happiest hap to enuy to bee thrall.
