Flovvers of Epigrammes | ||
How euery age is enclined.
The Babe (deuoyde of wit and sence)In Cradle still doth crie:
[92]
his tyme, and runnes awrye.
From 12. to 21. Youth
runnes rashly on his race:
The Lustie Youth to lawles luste
and riot runnes apace.
The Man still hunts for honours hie:
the Senior serious seekes
For wealth and coyne: glad when into
his pragged purse he peekes.
