It grieves many : The gentleman is learn'd, and a most rare speaker, To nature none more bound; his training such, That he may furnish and instruct great teachers, And never seek for aid out of himself.

Think on thy Proteus, when thou, haply, Despatch it presently. seest Some rare note-worthy object in thy travel: Wish me partaker in thy happiness, M. M., IV: 3. 167. - Fortune by. Pro.
