    How fallen, how changed
    From him, who, in the happy realms of light,
    Clothed with transcendent brightness, didst outshine
    Myriads, though bright.

Have more than thou showest,
Speak less than thou knowest,
Lend less than thou owest,
read more

Have more than thou showest,
Speak less than thou knowest,
Lend less than thou owest,
Ride more than thou goest,
Learn more than thou trowest,
Set less than thou throwest;
Leave thy drink and thy whore,
And keep in-a-door,
And thou shalt have more
Than two tens to a score.
