Epigrams. The First Booke. № 44. To one, who was heavily cast downe in Spirit, by rea∣son of some scandalous speeches, blased forth to his disadvantage

BE not discouraged at calumnies,
Which are not (at the worst) but loads of wind;
And therefore, with a strong and patient mind▪
Most easie to support, if you be wise;
For nat'rally such burthens are but light:
Unlesse the Bearers weaknesse give them weight.

  Thus endeth the first Booke, of Sir THO∣MAS VRCHARDS Epigrams.

1. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 22. A very ready way to goodnesse, and true VVisedome
2. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 24. No man should glory too much in the flourishing verdure of his Youth
3. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 43. That inconveniences ought to be regarded to before hand
4. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 4. How abject a thing it is, for a man to have bin long in the world without giving any proofe either by vertue, or learning, that he hath beene at all
5. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 33. That there is no true riches, but of necessary things
