IF griping greifes, haue harbour in thie breste,
And pining cares, laie seige vnto the same,
Or straunge conceiptes, doe reaue thee of thie rest,
And daie, and nighte, do bringe thee out of frame:
Then choose a freinde, and doe his counsaile craue,
Least secret sighes, doe bringe vntimelie graue.
Continuall care, did PLINIES harte possesse,
To knowe what caus'de VESEVVS hill to flame,
And ceased not, now this, nowe that, to gesse:
Yet, when hee coulde not comprehende the same,
Suche was his fate, pursuing his desier,
He headlonge fell into the flaming fier.
Non opibus mentes homini, curaeque leuantur, &c.
