I Wish Thee As Much

False World, Thou Ly'st: Thou Canst Not Lend The Least Delight: Thy Favours Cannot Gain A Friend, They Are So Slight.

Virtue Is Nothing But An Act Of Loving That Which Is To Be Beloved, And That Act Is Prudence, From Whence Not To Be Removed By Constraint Is Fortitude; Not To Be Allured By Enticements Is Temperance; Not To Be Diverted By Pride Is Justice.

In The Commission Of Evil, Fear No Man So Much As Thyself; Another Is But One Witness Against Thee, Thou Art A Thousand; Another Thou Mayest Avoid, Thyself Thou Canst Not. Wickedness Is Its Own Punishment.

Let The Greatest Part Of The News Thou Hearest Be The Least Part Of What Thou Believest, Lest The Greater Part Of What Thou Believest Be The Least Part Of What Is True.

Mercy Turns Her Back To The Unmerciful.
