For to reclaim to frend a froward foe, or bring to passe affaires waighty & great, if patience cheefly doth work it so, as vertue rare it may be thronde in seate: for such in whom that thing is so to finde, though thicke be sown, yet most spring out of kinde, for such in whom that thing is so to finde, though thicke be sown, yet most spring out of kinde.

Tho. VVhythorne.
