Thomas Urquhart (Томас Эркарт)

Epigrams. The Third Booke. № 4. That Lust, and drunkennesse are odious vices

Wrath makes a man to sin couragiously,
And pride doth swell with faire appearances:
Page  41 But drunkenesse, and too much Leacherie
Are sloven, filthie, villanous, and base;
For by the one Gods image being exil'd,
His Temple by the other is defil'd.

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 Third Booke. № 17. VVhy we must all dye
5. Epigrams. The Second Booke. № 23. We ought not to regard the contumelies, and calumnies of Lyars, and profane men
