Du Bartas | ||
36 Scientia & Ignorantia.
In Heav'ns sweet Language have I learn'd yer This,That to the Wise the world's as Night to Morning;
As Deaw to Sun; as Cloud to Noon-sted is:
For, vertuous Knowledge, in his brest bright-burning,
Is Morning, Sun and Noon: but, Ignorance
Is th'vgly Night; Pleasures, the vading Deaw;
Cloud Vanity, which doth our Soules pursue,
Till Vertues Raies infuse their Radiance.
Du Bartas | ||
