Thou workest well; can that a trouble be? Sloth more would jade thee than the roughest day. Could'st thou the secret minds of others see, Thou would'st full soon see truth in what I say. But let me hear thy way of life, and then Hear thou from me the lives of richer men. "_Man_. --I rise with the sun, Like him to drive the wain, And, ere my work is done, I sing a song or twain. I follow the plough-tail With a bottle of ale. On every saint's day With the minstrel I'm seen, All footing away W...ith the maids on the green. But oh, I wish to be more great, In honour, station, and estate! "_Sir Roger_. --Hast thou not seen a tree upon a hill, Whose ample boughs stretch wide around to sight? When angry tempests do the heavens fill, It shaketh drear, in dole and much affright: While the small flower in lowly graces deck'd Standeth unhurt, untroubled by the storm. The picture such of life. The man of might Is tempest-chafed, his woe great as his form; Thyself, a floweret of small account, Would harder feel the wind as higher thou didst mount.
