EMBLEME XXXVIII.
Patience brings the minde to rest,
And helps all troubles to digest.
The bird in cage restraind from libertie,
And helps all troubles to digest.
For all her bondage ceasseth not to sing.
But in the midst of all captiuitie,
With songs some cōfort she her selfe doth bring.
So when as men do stand in ieopardie,
And feele that sorrowes do their senses sting,
Yet must they striue to put all cares away,
And make themselues as merry as they may.
