"I have of late--but wherefore I know not--lost all my mirth, forgone all
custom of exercises; and indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory, this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours.
What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals! And yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust? man delights not me: no, nor woman neither, though by your smiling
you seem to say so.
Latin -
Ego nuper - sed nescio cur - funditus laetitia omnium subpono
more meditatione et quidem tam graviter it habitus meis hunc praeclarum corpore terrae mihi videtur esse sterile promontorium Optimam operuerunt caeli Ecce, fortissimo o'erhanging firmamentum hoc tectum majestical laqueata aureis ignem, quare non videtur aliud quam mihi turpis et pestilens multitudo vaporibus.
Quid partem opere virum! quam nobilis ratione! quam facultatem infinita! forma et movens, quam admirabile expresso! quam in actu sicut angelus! quam suspecta ut Deus species mundi SPECIMEN animalium in! Atqui mihi quid hoc ieiunia pulvere? quis me non deliciis nequaquam nec mulier Nec tamen tua subridens
videris dicere.
