ON goulden fleece, did Phryxus passe the waue, And landed safe, within the wished baie: By which is ment, the fooles that riches haue, Supported are, and borne throughe Lande, and Sea: And those enrich'de by wife, or seruauntes goodds, Are borne by them, like Phryxus through the floodds.

;

An other of the like argument. To M. I. E. A Leaden sworde, within a goulden sheathe, Is like a foole of natures finest moulde: To whome, shee did her rarest giftes bequethe. Or like a sheepe, within a fleece of goulde. Or like a clothe, whome colours braue adorne, When as the grounde, is patched, rente, and torne. For, if the minde the chiefest treasures lacke, Thoughe nature bothe, and fortune, bee our frende; Thoughe goulde wee weare, and purple on our backe, Yet are wee poore, and none will vs comende But onlie fooles; and flatterers, for their gaine: For other men, will ride vs with disdaine. Plaut. in poen. Pulcrum ornatum tur- pes mores peius coeno collinunt. Lepidi mores turpem ornatum facile factis comprobant. Bern. in Epist. Decor, qui cum veste induitur, & cum vetse depo- nitur: vestimenti est, non vestiti.
