And first behold the goodly features of Wisdom, an amiable virtue, and worthy to lead this stage : which, as she ex- tends herself to all the following graces, so amongst the rest is for her largeness most conspicuous. CHARACTER OF THE WISE MAN. There is nothing that he desires not to know ; but most and first, himself ; and not so much his own strength as his weaknesses : neither is his knowledge reduced to discourse, but practice. He is a skilful logician, not by nature so much as use : his w...orking mind doth nothing all his time, but make syllogisms and draw out conclu- sions. Everything that he sees and hears, serves for one of the premises : with these he cares first to inform him- self, then to direct others. Both his eyes are never at once from home, but one keeps house while the other roves abroad for intelligence.
