It has many snares, and no real benefit to thyself; and uncertainty to others. PRIVACY. 325. Remember the proverb, Bene qui latuit, bene vixit: They are happy that live retiredly. 326. If this be true, princes and their gran dees, of all men, are the unhappiest ; for they live least alone : and they that must be enjoyed by every body, c...an never enjoy themselves as they should. 327.
