Epigrams. The First Booke. ¹ 3. A brave spirit disdaineth the threats of Fortune No man of resolution, will endure His liberty in Fortunes hands to thrall; For he’s not free, o’r whom she hath least pow’r: But over whom she hath no pow’r at all: Nor hath she any chaine, wherewith to bind, The inclination of a noble mind. |
