Emblema. 65. Deignavo.



The same in English
The sluggish man his hands doth fold

Prov.26.14,15.


and in his bosome hide,
Them forth he will not draw, the cold
he can not eke abide.
He weedes and thistles in his ground

Proverb.24.


doth suffer for to spred,
And as the dore on hooks turn'th round,
So he doth tosse in bed.
