THIS portrature, dothe
The laurell crowne, tha fame of phisike showes.
The bearde, declares his longe experience well:
And grauitie therewith that alwaie goes.
Amongst the sicke; commaunding euerie thinge.
The knotted staffe, declares the crabbed skill
Moste harde t'attaine; that doth supporte his state:
With constant minde, and rashe proceedinge hate:
The Dragon, tells he doth our age renewe,
And soone decerne, to giue the sicke his dewe.
The cocke, dothe teache his watchinge, and his care,
To visite ofte his pacientes, in their paine:
The couchinge dogge, dothe laste of all declare,
That faithfulnes, and loue, shoulde still remaine:
Within their brestes, that Phisike doe professe.
Which partes, they all shoulde in their deedes expresse.
Ad medicam du-
bius confugit ager
opem.
Corporis debilitas
nimia, etiam animi
vires frangit, mentis
quoque ingenium
marcescere facit:
quicquid cum mo-
do, & temperamen-
to fit, salubre fit.
