BONAVENT. de contemptu seculi.

O that men would be wise, understand, and foresee: Be wise, to know three things: The multitude of those that are to be damned; the few number of those that are to be saved; and the vanity of transitory things: Understand three things: the multitude of sinnes, the omission of good things, and the losse of time: Foresee three things, the danger of death, the last judgement, and eternall punishment.
