Let not the pleasing many thee delight, First judge if those whom thou dost please judge right. - John Denham

Search not to find how other men offend, But by that glass thy own offences mend; Still seek to learn, yet care not much from whom, (So it be learning) or from whence it come. Of thy own actions, others' judgments learn; Often by small, great matters we discern: Youth what man's age is like to be doth show; We may our ends by our beginnings know.

We're ne'er like angels till our passion dies.

Nor ought a genius less than his that writ
