There are very beautiful instances of this nature in the following passages, which are likewise written upon the same subject: "Whose discovereth secrets, loseth his credit, and shall never find a friend to his mind.
Neither doth this weakness appear to others only, and not to the party loved; but to the loved most of all, except the love be reciproque. For it is a true rule, that love is ever rewarded, either with the reciproque, or with an inward and secret contempt. By how much the more, men ought to beware of this passion, which loseth not only other things, but itself!
For he only never loseth a dear friend to whom all men are dear, for His sake, who is never lost." Here, on the margin of the old book, beside these thoughts, so beautiful if so helpless, like all words, to console, some reader long dead has written: "Pray for your poor servant, J. M." And again, "Pray for your poor friend."
I have seen this thing, and I belong to it." There was silence again. "You spoke just now of what Christ would have said " Montanelli began slowly; but Arthur interrupted him: "Christ said: 'He that loseth his life for my sake shall find it."

His life is merely contemplative; for his practice, 'tis worth nothing, at least not worthy of credit, and if by chance he purchase any, he loseth it again at the year's end, for time brings truth to light. Ptolemy and Tycho Brahe are his patrons, whose volumes he understands not but admires, and the rather because they are strangers, and so easier to be credited than controlled.

Of great riches there is no real use, except it be in the distribution; the rest is but conceit.
