ALEYN
English historic poet
(1590 - 1640)

But look for ruin when a coward wins;
  For fear and cruelty are ever twins.
      - [Cowards]

Money and man a mutual falsehood show,
  Men make false money, money makes men so.
      - [Falsehood]

No body's healthful without exercise:
  Just wars are exercises of a state;
    Virtue 's in motion, and contends to rise,
      With generous ascents above a mate.
      - [Exercise]

Our dangers and delights are near allies,
  From the same stem the rose and prickle rise.
      - [Danger]

The fine and noble way to kill a foe
  Is not to kill him; you with kindness may
    So change him, that he shall cease to be so;
      Then he's slain.
      - [Enemies]

Those edges soonest turn, that are most keen;
  A sober moderation stands secure,
    No violent extremes endure.
      - [Extremes]
