How happy is he born or taught, That serveth not another's will; Whose armour is his honest thought, And simple truth his highest skill; Whose passions not his masters are; Whose soul is still prepar'd for death Untied unto the world with care Of princes’ grace or vulgar breath; Who envies none whom chance doth raise, Or vice; who never understood The deepest wounds are given by praise, By rule of state, but not of good; Who hath his life from rumours freed; Whose conscience
