EMBLEME III.
Who doth presume aboue his state,
Doth still incurre the greater hate.
Thou that in Court doest spend thy merry daies,
Doth still incurre the greater hate.
Sport not with Princes, if that thou be wise:
For he that with his owne superiour playes,
Shall finde great perils thereof to arise.
Meddle with thy match, the antiēt prouerbe saies
On equall play-fellowes no danger lyes.
He that presumes to shaue the Lyons skin,
Full little knowes what danger he is in.
