Thomas Urquhart (Томас Эркарт)

Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 1. No crosse adventure should hinder vs from being good; though we be frustrate of the reward thereof

BY any meanes, with all your might endeavour
For honesty, whats'ever be th'event:
Although sinister fortune should dissever
Vertue from honour, be not discontent;
For if you be deprived of your due,
The fault is in the time: and not in you.

1. Epigrams. The First Booke. № 30. That wise men, to speak properly, are the most powerfull men in the world
2. Epigrams. The Third Booke. № 8. The resolution of a proficient in vertue
3. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 43. That inconveniences ought to be regarded to before hand
4. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 23. We ought not to regard the contumelies, and calumnies of Lyars, and profane men
5. Epigrams. The First Booke. № 36. How difficult a thing it is, to tread in the pathes of vertue
