Temerité.
Apostrophe.
Le Charretier qui ha mauvais cheval,
Tire la bride en vain, & tombe à val.
Ne commetz rien à lhomme en ta maison,
Que volunté gouverne, & non raison.
A ceulx qui suyvent leur
volunté, & non la raison,
ne se fault de rien fier.
Notes:
1. In general see Plato’s image of the chariot of the soul, Phaedrus, 246, as indicated in some commentaries.
