THE wicked worlde, so false and full of crime,
Did alwaies mooue HERACLITVS to weepe,
The fading joyes, and follies of that time,
DEMOCRITVS did driue to laughter deepe,
Thus heynous sinne, and follie did procure,
Theise famous men, suche passions to indure.
What if they liu'de, and shoulde behoulde this age,
Which ouerflowes, with swellinge seas of sinne:
Where fooles, by swarmes, doe presse vppon the stage,
With hellishe Impes, that like haue neuer binne:
I thinke this fighte, shoulde hasten their decaye,
Then helpe vs God, and Sathans furie staie.
Damnosa quid non imminuit dies?
Aetas parentum peior auis tulit
Nos nequiores, mox daturos
Progeniem vitiosiorem.
De his, Seneca
lib. De Tran-
quillitate vitae.
Horatius.
