Be Not Penny-wise. Riches Have

To Know Truly Is To Know By Causes.

One Of The Fathers Saith . . . That Old Men Go To Death, And Death Comes To Young Men.

Death Is A Friend Of Ours; And He That Is Not Ready To Entertain Him Is Not At Home.

It Is By Discourse That Men Associate, And Words Are Imposed According To The Apprehension Of The Vulgar. And Therefore The Ill And Unfit Choice Of Words Wonderfully Obsesses The Understanding. Nor Do The Definitions Or Explanations Wherewith In Some Things Learned Men Are Wont To Guard And Defend Themselves, By Any Means Set The Matter Right. But Words Plainly Force And Overrule The Understanding, And Throw All Into Confusion, And Lead Men Away Into Innumerable And Inane Controversies And Fancies.
