? ? ? ? "Man is all symmetry,

Full of proportions, one limb to another,

? ? ? ? And to all the world besides.

? ? ? ? Each part may call the farthest, brother;

For head with foot hath private amity,

? ? ? ? And both with moons and tides.

? ? ? ? "Nothing hath got so far

But man hath caught and kept it as his prey;

? ? ? ? His eyes dismount the highest star;

? ? ? ? He is in little all the sphere.

Herbs gladly cure our flesh, because that they

? ? ? ? Find their acquaintance there.

? ? ? ? "For us, the winds do blow,

The earth doth rest, heaven move, and fountains flow;

? ? ? ? Nothing we see, but means our good,

? ? ? ? As our delight, or as our treasure;

The whole is either our cupboard of food,

? ? ? ? Or cabinet of pleasure.

? ? ? ? "The stars have us to bed:

Night draws the curtain; which the sun withdraws.

? ? ? ? Music and light attend our head.

? ? ? ? All things unto our flesh are kind,

In their descent and being; to our mind,

? ? ? ? In their ascent and cause.
