Emblema. 23. Nihil fortuito.
The same in English.
The wheel doth not it selfe turne round,Vnlesse the horse doe drawe:
But in the same place still is found,
Where thou before it saw.
Euen so the blessed spirites while,
Gods precepts they fulfill,
Doe mooue all things both high and vile,
And rule them at their will.
Wherefore leaue of and doe not striue,
For in thy way they stand,
If once they tak't in hand,
For as in heauen God doth decree,
Euen so in earth thy lot shall be.
