Maxioms by George Herbert
Art thou a magistrate? then be severe:
If studious, copy fair what time hath blurr'd,
Redeem truth read more
Art thou a magistrate? then be severe:
If studious, copy fair what time hath blurr'd,
Redeem truth from his jaws: if a soldier,
Chase brave employments with a naked sword
Throughout the world. Fool not, for all may have
If they dare try, a glorious life, or grave.
The Court hath no Almanack.
The Court hath no Almanack.
He that riseth first, is first drest.
He that riseth first, is first drest.
