The praise of humilitie in his L. and Mr.
It seems (me think) a thing of small effect,When Fortun frowns for to be meek and lowlie:
But he that can eies, heart, looks thoghts, deject,
VVhen Fortun fauns is happie both and holie:
He looks like God, and hath his makers show,
VVhose pow'r is much, whose sprit is meek and low.
