Poem by Thomas Urquhart
Epigrams. The Third Booke. № 21. To one, who did confide too much in the sound temperament, and goodly constitution of his bodily complexion
Boast not of outward health: but have a care
Your soule be not distemperd; for we find
The case of them most dangerous, who are
In wholsome bodies of a sickly mind,
Vice tyrannizing over flesh, and blood
In those, whose will, and judgement are not good.
