TIMES co BY TURNS.

The topped tree in time may grow again; Most naked plants renew both fruit and flower; @ The sorriest wight may find release of pain, The drest soil suck i'll some iaoistening siower Time goes by turns, end chances change by course From foul to fair, from better hap to worse. < The sea of fortune does not ever flow. She draws her favors to the lowest eb5; Her tides have equal times to come and go, Her loom doth weave the fine and coaraest webb; { No joy so great but runneth to an end; " No hap so hard, but may in fine amend. Not always fall Of leaf, nor ever spring, < No endless night, TOT yet eternal day; 9 The saddeet birds a season find to sing, The rougheststorm calm may soon allay: Thus with succeeding turns God tempereth all, as. That man may hope to rise, yet fear to fall chance may win that by misehance was lost; That net that holds no great takes little fish: In some things all in all things none are crossed; Few all they need, but none have all they wish unmingled joys here to no man befall: N ho least hath some, who mostzbath never all. z
