SIR HENRY WOTTON

Who hath his life from rumours freed ; Whose conscience is his strong retreat; Whose state can neither flatterers feed, Nor ruin make oppressors great j

Who God doth late and early pray More of His grace r.han gifts to lend ; And entertains the harmless day With a religious book or friend ;

This man is freed from servile bands Of hope to rise or fear to fall : Lord of himself, though not of lands, And having nothing, yet hath all.

��SIR JOHN DAVIES

l8l. Man

T KNOW my soul hath power to know all things,

Yet she is blind and ignorant in a-11 : I know I'm one of Nature's little kings, Yet to the least and vilest things am thrall.
