Some Men, when for their Actions they procure A likely colour, (be it nere so vaine) Proceede as if their Projects were as sure, As when Sound Reason did their Course maintayne: And these not much unlike those Children are, Who through a Storme advent'ring desp'rately, Had rather on their Heads, a Sive to beare, Then Cov'rings, that may serve to keepe them drye. For, at a distance that perchance is thought A helpfull Shelter; and, yet, proves to those Who neede the same, a Toy, which profits nought; Because, each drop of Raine quite through it, goes. So, they, whose foolish Projects, for a while, Doe promise their Projectors hopefull ends, Shall finde them, in the Tryall, to beguile; And, that both Shame and Want, on them attends. Such like is their estate, who, (to appeare Rich-men to others) doe, with Inward-payne, A gladsome out-ward Port desire to beare; Though they at last nor Wealth nor Credit gaine. And, such are all those Hypocrites, who strive False Hearts beneath Faire spoken Words to hyde: For, they o'revaile themselves but with a Sive, Through which, their purposes at length are spyde. And, then, they either woefully-lament Their Bruitish-folly, or so hardned grow In Sinning, that they never can repent, Nay, jest and scoffe at their owne Overthrow. But no false Vaile can serve (when God will smite) To save a Scorner, or an Hypocrite.
