    These (literary) studies are the food of youth, and consolation
    of age; they adorn prosperity, and are the comfort and refuge of
    adversity; they are pleasant at home, and are no incumbrance
    abroad; they accompany us at night, in our travels, and in our
    rural retreats.
    [Lat., Haec studia adolecentiam alunt, senectutem oblectant,
    secundas res ornant, adversis solatium et perfugium praebent,
    delectant domi, non impediunt foris, pernoctant nobiscum,
    peregrinantur, rusticantur.

Study is like the heaven's glorious sun,
That will not be deep-searched with saucy looks:
Small have read more

Study is like the heaven's glorious sun,
That will not be deep-searched with saucy looks:
Small have continual plodders ever won,
Save base authority from others' books.
