THrise happie
she, that is so well assured
Vnto her selfe and
setled so in hart:
that nether will for better be
allured,
ne feard with worse to any chaunce to
start,
But like a steddy ship doth strongly part
the raging waues and keepes her course aright:
ne
ought for tempest doth from it depart,
ne ought for
fayrer weathers false delight.
Such selfe assurance
need not feare the spight,
of grudging foes, ne
fauour seek of friends:
but in the stay of her owne
stedfast might,
nether to one her selfe nor other
bends.
Most happy she that most assured doth rest,
but he most happy who such one loues best.
