6i SESECa's MORA*LS.
Life rendered shorter hv idlent terests, suing for offices, soliciting of causes, and slavish flatteries! The shortness of life, 1 know, is the common complaint, both of fools and phi- losophers ; as if the time we have were not suffi- cient for our duties. But it is with our lives as with our estates, a good husband makes a little go a great way ; whereas let the revenue of a prince fall into the hand of a prodigal, it is gone in a moment. So that the time allotted us, if ...it were well employed, were abundantly enough to answer all the ends and purposes of mankind. But we squander it away in avarice, drink, sleep, lux- ur} 7, ambition, fawning addresses, envy, rambling voyages, impertinent studies, change of councils, and the like ; and when our portion is spent, we find the want of it, though we give no heed to it in the passage : insomuch, that we have rather made our life short, than found it so. You shall have some people perpetually playing with their fingers, whistling, humming, and talking to themselves; and others consume their days in the composing, hearing, or reciting, of songs and lampoons.
