There is no treasure the which may be compared unto a faithful

Gold some decayeth, and worldly read more

There is no treasure the which may be compared unto a faithful
friend;
Gold some decayeth, and worldly wealth consumeth, and wasteth in

and woe;
The frownes of fortune, come they never so unkinde, cannot the
same overthrowe.
