Epig. 21. Patience is a Vertue.
To his lo: Cosin, and deere alismar, Hop: Thomas.
Patience endures the Brunt of all assaults.For frowning fortune can it nought displease;
Nor, can it grieue base feigned friendships faults,
Nor yet, being wrong'd, from constancie will cease,
Therefore, a peerelesse vertue, patience is,
Whereto nothing, at no time, comes amisse.
