For there was never proud man thought so absurdly well of himself, as the lover doth of the person loved; and therefore it was well said, That it is impossible to love, and to be wise. 因為甚至最驕傲的人,也甘願在情人面前自輕自賤。所以古人說得好:「就是神在愛情中也難保持聰明。」
How doth the little busy bee/Improve each shining hour. 小小蜜蜂多忙碌/利用良機不放鬆。
And therefore, if a man write little, he had need have a great memory; if he confer little, he had need have a present wit; and if he read little, he had need have more cunning, to seem to know that he doth not. 因此,一個人如果不寫,他就需要記住很多東西; 如果不和人交談,他就需要天箋機智; 如果不讀書,他就需要更狡猾,能夠假裝知道他所不知道的東西。
