The summe of all.

[so vertuously endeuour thy selfe to liue.]

so vertuously endeuour thy selfe to liue.
that men, euen worthily thy lyfe may cōmend,
counterfait not vertue, for men will it repriue,
and praise thee for thy profit, if rightly thou entende,
bothe praise and dispraise in our liuing doth depende,
and as after the body there foloweth shadow,
euen so after vertue praise doth also folow.
