h of your blanket. One ounce of discretion is worth a pound of wit. Chi tutto abraccia, nulla stringa. Ce qui vient au son de la flute sen va au son du tambour. Make no more haste than good speed. Cavendum est, ne in festinationibus suspiciamus nimias celeritates.—Cicero. Qui unumquodque mature transegit, is properat ; qui multa simul incipit nequeperficit, festinat.— Cato. SPENT WITH THE DRUM. MORE BELONGS TO RIDING THAN A PAIR OF BOOTS. #jjf^ITANS day burning lamp is fet on high,^ The more to lightn the Earth from faphir fky ; His beames more glorious and confpicuous mine From Eaft to Weft, from South to midnight line : My light you muft not under bufhell put, Nor in a chinky corners prifon fhut; That lights may cleare the chambers all throughout, They muft aloft be hanged round about. You holy Priefts, to whom the word of lightIs truft, advance your torches in the fightOf mortals, fhew them who in darkenefTe dwell,The narrow way that leads to Heaven, from Hell. Farlies Emblems.
