Maxioms by George Herbert
Drink not the third glass, which thou canst not tame,
When once it is within thee; but before

Drink not the third glass, which thou canst not tame,
When once it is within thee; but before
Mayst rule it, as thou list: and pour the shame,
Which it would pour on thee, upon the floor.
It is most just to throw that on the ground,
Which would throw me there, if I keep the round.
An old dog barks not in vain.
An old dog barks not in vain.
Peace, and Patience, and death with repentance.
Peace, and Patience, and death with repentance.
A scepter is one thing, and a ladle another.
A scepter is one thing, and a ladle another.
God comes to see without a bell.
God comes to see without a bell.
