Flovvers of Epigrammes | ||
To one verie timerous.
Now Does we may call desperat,and Hartes coragious bolde:
For Does, and Hartes, lesse timerous
then thee a thousand folde.
To be afraid where is no feare,
is signe of dastardie:
And soone the faint of corage fall
in snares of Sathan slie.
Against all daunger, and mishap,
the chefest thing no dout
35
and heart coragious stoute.
Feare not the commyng of mishappe,
but when that it is come:
Then stick vnto thy tacklyng stoute,
and beare both all and some.
