Epigrams. The First Booke. № 31. To a rich man, become poore

YOur poverty should be the more esteemed,
That by the meanes thereof you are exeemed
From stubborne servants, lying Sycophants,
And faigned friends: in lieu whereof, it grants
These three of a more vertuous company,
Ease, humble cariage, and sobriety.
