Томас Эркарт. 1-4 Как стать мудрым

Thomas Urquhart. How to become wise

Epigrams, The First Book, 4

Who would be truly wise, must in all haste
His mind of perturbations dispossesse;
For wisedome is a large, and spatious guhest:
And can not dwell, but in an empty place,
Therefore to harbour her, we must not grudge,
To make both vice, and passion to dislodge.
