LOE SISYPHVS, that roles the restlesse stone To toppe of hill, with endlesse toile, and paine: Which beinge there, it tumbleth doune alone, And then, the wretche must force it vp againe: And as it falles, he makes it still ascende; And yet, no toile can bringe this worke to ende. This SISYPHVS: presenteth Adams race. The restlesse stone: their trauaile, and their toile: The hill, dothe shewe the daye, and eeke the space, Wherein they still doe labour, woke, and moile. And thoughe till nighte they striue the hill to clime, Yet vp againe, the morninge nexte betime. Vita humana propriè vti ferrum est: Ferrum si exerceas, conteritur: si non exer- ceas, tamen rubigo interficit. Item homines exercendo videmus conteri. Si nihil exerceas, inertia atque torpedo plus detrimenti facit, quàm exercitatio. Ouid. Metam. lib. 4. Plat. de prosper. Hanc rationem deus sequitur in bonis vi- ris, quam in discipu- lis suis praeceptores: qui plus laboris ab his exigunt, in qui- bus certior spes est. Aul. Gell. lib. 11. ca, 3.
