And all the courses of my life do show
I am read more

And all the courses of my life do show

Brags of his substance, not of ornament.
They are read more

Conceit, more rich in matter than in words,
Brags of his substance, not of ornament.

But my true love is grown to such excess
I cannot sum up sum of half my wealth.

Whoe'er imagines prudence all his own,
Or deems that he hath powers to speak and judge
Such as none other hath, when they are known,
They are found shallow.
