DESIRE to haue, dothe make vs muche indure, In trauaile,toile, and labour voide of reste: The marchant man is caried with this lure, Throughe scorching heate, to regions of the Easte: Oh thirste of goulde, what not? but thou canst do: And make mens hartes for to consent thereto. The trauailer poore, when shippe doth suffer wracke, Who hopes to swimme vnto the wished lande, Dothe venture life, with fardle on his backe, That if he scape, the same in steede amye stande. Thus, hope of life, and loue vnto his goods, Houldes vp his chinne, with burthen in the floods. Horat. lib. 1. Epist. 1. Impiger extremos curris mercator ad Indos, Per mare pauperiem fugiens per saxa per ignes.
