Socrates.
He that loveth the W^orld, hath great travail [labour]; but he that hateth it, hath rest.
He that loveth the World shall not fail of one of these •inconveniences, or bothic that is, either to displease GOD, or else to be envied of mightier men than himself.
This World is but a Passage into the other: wherefore he that prepareth him things necessary for that Passage, is sure from all perils.
89 The World, the delight of an hour ; the sorrow of days.
Hermes.
This World is the delight of... an hour, and the sorrow of many days : but the other World is great rest and long joy.
He that seeketh the pleasures of this World followeth a Shadow ; which (when he thinketh he is surest of) vanisheth, and is nothing.
Seneca.
Man hath never perfect rest and joy in this World ; nor possesseth always his own winning.
Socrates.
The love of this World stoppeth Man's ears from hearing Wisdom ; and blindeth his eyes from seeing through it. Also it causeth a man to be envied ; and keepeth him from doing any good.
