De guerre Paix.
Apodeixe.
Voy, Que le heaulme en guerre souvent mis
Tant de fois tinct du sang des ennemis.
En temps de Paix sert de rusche, à la mousche
Contenant cire, & miel doulx à la bouche.

Armes soient loing: Mais permise soit guerre,
Car aultrement, on ne peut paix acquerre.[1]
Une mesme chose peut avoir deux usa-
ges contraires, comme l’espée porte paix
par craincte & Justice: & porte guerre
par injure, & audace. Pource guerre est
necessaire pour avoir paix. Ce que
demon-
stre ung heaulme, en temps de guerre ser
vant aulx armes: en temps de paix aux a-
veilles, miel, & cire.

El Amor de la virtud.
Dialogo. Lettor. Amor.
SONETO.
L. Do està
tu flecha y arco di Cupido,
Con que solias clavar el tierno pecho?
Do estan tus alas, y tu fuego hecho
Para abrasar qualquier hombre naçido?
Link to an image of this page [G8r p111]
Estas coronas tres do te an venido,
Y esotra en la cabeza? A. No ha derecho
En mi la Venus, à quien yo desecho,
Lettor, que no soy de ella conçevido.
Yo soy aquel Amor de virtud santto
Que las almas ençiendo, y las mantengo,
Y à contemplar en alto las levanto.
De virtud las coronas son que tengo,
Y la de la prudençia (por ser tanto
Su honor) en la cabeza la sostengo.[1]
