    The more experience finds you: And go sparing;--
    One meal a week will serve you, and one suit,
    Through all your travels; for you'll find it certain,
    The poorer and the baser you appear,
    The more you look through still.

Strenua nos exercet inertia, navibus atque
Quadrigis petimus bene vivere; quod petis hic est.]
