ONE hande with winges, woulde flie vnto the starres,
And raise mee vp to winne immortal fame:
But my desire, necessitie still barres,
And in the duste doth burie vp my name:
That hande woulde flie, th'other still is bounde,
With heauie stone, which houldes it to the ground.
My wishe, and will, are still to mounte alofte.
My wante, and woe, denie me my desire:
I shewe theire state, whose witte, and learninge, ofte
Excell, and woulde to highe estate aspire:
But pouertie, with heauie clogge of care,
Still pulles them downe, when they ascending are.
Haud facilè emergunt, quorum virtutibus obstat
Res angusta domi, &c.
Iuuenalis.
