They that haue powre to hurt, and will doe none,
That doe not do the thing, they most do showe, Who mouing others, are themselues as stone, Vnmooued, could, and to temptation slow: They rightly do inherrit heauens graces, And husband natures ritches from expence, They are the Lords and owners of their faces, Others, but stewards of their excellence: The sommers flowre is to the sommer sweet, Though to it selfe, it onely liue and die, But if that flowre with base infection meete, The basest weed out-braues his dignity: For sweetest things turne sowrest by their deedes, Lillies that fester, smell far worse then weeds.
