Disinclination to begin a work

Through fear of failure, is a mark of weakness;

Is food renounced through fear of indigestion (II. 54)?
If glass be used to decorate a crown,
While gems are taken to bedeck a foot,

'Tis not that any fault lies in the gem,

But in the want of knowledge of the setter1 (II. 72).

A man may on affliction's touchstone learn

The worth of his own kindred, wife, and servants;
Also of his own mind and character (II. 79).

A feverish display of over-zeal

At the first outset, is an obstacle

To all success; water, however cold,

Will penetrate the ground by slow degrees (III. 48).
Even a foe, if he perform a kindness,

Should be esteemed a kinsman; e'en a kinsman,
If he do harm, should be esteemed a foe.

A malady, though bred within the body

Does mischief, while a foreign drug that comes

From some far forest does a friendly work (III. 101).

Whither have gone the rulers of the earth,

With all their armies, all their regal pomp,

And all their stately equipages? Earth,

That witnessed their departure, still abides (IV. 68).

E'en as a traveller, meeting with the shade
Of some o'erhanging tree, awhile reposes,
Then leaves its shelter to pursue his way,

So men meet friends, then part with them for ever2 (IV. 73).

Thou art thyself a stream whose sacred ford

Is self-restraint, whose water is veracity,

Whose bank is virtue, and whose waves are love;

Here practise thy ablutions; by mere water

The inner man can ne'er be purified (IV. 90).

1 'Is such a thing as an emerald made worse than it was, if it is not praised?' Marcus Aurelius. Farrar's 'Seekers after God,' p. 306. 2 Compare p. 441, 1. 11, of this volume.

Many parallels in European writers will naturally suggest themselves to the educated reader while perusing the foregoing pages. I have purposely avoided cumbering my notes with obvious comparisons.

INDEX.
