Neglecta virescunt.
Neglect makes things prosper.
Ad Hadrianum Junium,[1] medicum
clarissimum.
Comme le lyerre verdoye
Et prend une large voye
Au long des murs eslevez,
Que bien souvent il surmonte Link to an image of this page [I7r p141]Bien que lon n’en tienne compté [=compte]
Ou les serpens sont trouvez:
Ainsi ceux que l’on envie
Rendent leur vertu florie
Entre les plus estimez :
Chacun les honore & prise,
En verteuse entreprise
D’un chacun ils sont aimez.
Bien que tu ne le vueille estre
Chacun te viendra congnoistre
Harleme, pour tes vertus,
Tu en auras recompense,
Et verray par ta puissance
Tes envieux combatus.
O fausse & maligne, envie
Tousjours des bons ennemie,
Tu t’esleves contre toy:
Et l’envieux pour la haine
Porte tousjours une peine
Par une divine loy.
1. Hadrianus Junius (Aadrian De Jonghe), doctor and historian of the Estates of Holland. Author of another book of emblems.
