EMBLEME LXXVI.
We purchase nothing by our play,
But beggery and our decay.
They that do vse to hazard much at play,
But beggery and our decay.
And venture all their substance at a cast,
Do often fall into so great decay,
That they become meere beggers at the last:
And then on others they are faine to pray,
Or liue of spoile, and others goods to wast:
When as their owne before with better thrift,
Would well haue seru'd their turn at eu'ry shift.
