WHO lookes, maye leape: and saue his shinnes from knockes. Who tries, maye truste: els flattringe frendes shall finde. He saues the steede, that keepes him vnder lockes. Who speakes with heede, maye bouldlie speake his minde. But hee, whose tonge before his witte, doth runne, Ofte speakes to soone, and greeues when he hath done. A worde once spoke, it can retourne no more, But flies awaie, and ofte thy bale doth breede: A wise man then, settes hatche before the dore, And while he maye, doth square his speeche with heede. The birde in hande, wee maye at will restraine, But beinge flowen, wee call her backe in vaine. Praui sicut in sensu leues, ita sunt in lo- cutione praecipites: Quia quod leuis con- scientia concipit, le- uior protinus lingua prodit. Greg. Ho- mil. 5. Horat. Epist. 18. Et semel emissum volat irreuocabile verbum. Et si vtile est subitò saepe dicere, tamen illud vtilius, sumpto spacio ad cogitan- dum paratius, atque accuratius dicere. Cicero 2. De Orator.
