39. One, who did extreamly regret, his bestowing of a great benefit vpon an ingrate man.
By giving moneyes to a thanklesse man,You lost the matter of your benefit:
57
Which was your willingnesse in giving it;
For his repaying of your gratefull action,
Had made you gaine all, that you had received
And getting nought, you lacke not satisfaction;
It onely being, to give it, that you gave it;
Else in your gifts, a bargaine we should find:
And not the noble acts of a free mind.
