Having foreseen the _End_, she looketh out _Means_, as a _Way_, 8. which leadeth to the End; _Fine_ prospecto, dispicit _Media_, ceu _Viam_, 8. quæ ducit ad finem, but such as are certain and easie, and fewer rather than more, lest anything should hinder. sed certa & facilia; pauciora potiùs quàm plura, ne quid impediat. She watcheth _Opportunity_, 9. (which having a _bushy fore-head_, 10. and being _bald-pated_, 11. Attendit _Occasioni_, 9. (quæ _Fronte Capillata_, 10. sed vertice _calva_, 11. and moreover _having wings_, 12. doth quickly slip away,) and catcheth it. adhæc _alata_, 12. facile elabitur) eamque captat. She goeth on her way warily, for fear she should stumble or go amiss. In viâ pergit cautè (providè) ne impingat aut aberret. CXI. Diligence. Sedulitas. [Illustration] _Diligence_, 1. loveth labours, avoideth _Sloth_, is always at work, like the _Pismire_, 2. _Sedulitas_, 1. amat labores, fugit _Ignaviam_, semper est in _opere_, ut _Formica_, 2. and carrieth together, as she doth, for herself, _Store_ of all things, 3. & comportat, ut illa, sibi, omnium rerum _Copiam_, 3. She doth not always sleep, or make holidays, as the _Sluggard_, 4. and the _Grashopper_, 5. do, whom _Want_, 6. at the last overtaketh. Non semper dormit, ferias agit, aut ut _Ignavus_, 4. & _Cicada_, 5. quos _Inopia_, 6. tandem premit. She pursueth what things she hath undertaken chearfully, even to the end; she putteth nothing off till the morrow, Urget incepta alacriter ad finem usque; procrastinat nihil, nor doth she sing the _Crow’s_ song, 7. which saith over and over, _Cras, Cras_. nec cantat cantilenam _Corvi_, 7. qui ingeminat _Cras, Cras_. After _labours_ _undergone_, and ended, being even wearied, she resteth her self; Post _labores_ _exantlatos_, & lassata, quiescit; but being refreshed with _Rest_, that she may not use her self to _Idleness_, she falleth again to her _Business_, sed recreata _Quiete_, ne adsuescat _Otio_, redit ad _Negotia_. A diligent _Scholar_ is like _Bees_, 8. which carry honey from divers _Flowers_, 9. into their _Hive_, 10. Diligens _Discipulus_, similis est _Apibus_, 8. qui congerunt mel ex variis _Floribus_, 9. in _Alveare_ suum, 10. CXII. Temperance. Temperantia. [Illustration] _Temperance_, 1. prescribeth a mean to _meat_ and _drink_, 2. _Temperantia_, 1. præscribit _modum_ _Cibo_ & _Potui_, 2. and restraineth the _desire_, as with a _Bridle_, 3. and so moderateth all things, lest any thing too much be done. & continet _cupidinem_, ceu _Freno_, 3. & sic moderatur omnia ne quid nimis fiat.
