A Withered Elme, whose boughes weare bare of leaues And sappe, was sunke with age into the roote: A fruictefull vine, vnto her bodie cleaues, Whose grapes did hange, from toppe vnto the foote: And when the Elme, was rotten, drie, and dead, His braunches still, the vine abowt it spread. Which showes, wee shoulde be linck'de with such a frende, That might reuiue, and helpe when wee bee oulde: And when wee stoope, and drawe vnto our ende, Our staggering state, to helpe for to vphoulde: Yea, when wee shall be like a sencelesse block, That for our sakes, will still imbrace our stock. Ire iubet Pylades charum periturus Orestem: Hic negat, inque vicem pugnat vterque mori, Extitit hoc vnum quod non conuenerat illis: Caetera pars concors, & sine lite fuit. Virgil. in Moecena- tis obirum. Et decet, & certè vinam tibi semper amicus, Nec tibi qui mori- tur, desinit esse tuus: Ipse ego quicquid ero, cineres intérq. fauillas, Tunc quoque non po- tero non memor esse tui. Ouid. 3. Pont. 2.
