(33) Pouertie.
As fishe Remora staies the Shipp,which ells with prosperous wynde
Would sayle vnto the port of rest,
sweete comfort for to finde,
Soe hated povertie, with greife
of fortunes hard disgrace,
The Labors of the vertuous minde
doth vtterlie deface:
ffor none soe noble vertue doth dwell in anie wight,
but want obscures it, forcing him to silence with dispight.
