Epig. 42. Vn-Healthy Healths.
By how much more thou Healths dost drinke,So much lesse Health thou haste;
Thousand such Healths take thou, for mee,
That Health by Healths wilt waste:
To wisemen, that, is Healthiest,
To drinke no Healths at-all;
What Health can be in drinking Healths?
When Men like Beasts must crawle.
