EMBLEME LVI.
More die with surfet at their boord,
Then in the warres with dint of sword.
The glut'nous Rau'n deuours the venomd Snake,
Then in the warres with dint of sword.
Which though at first seemes pleasant to his taste,
When he doth feele his gorge with poison ake,
He rues with death the meate he eat in haste.
Hereby we note what heed we ought to take,
Lest that we vse excesse in our repast:
For gluttony doth more their deaths affoord,
Then mightie Mars with his two edged sword.
