And the wise man dyeth as well as the fool.
And the wyse man dyeth as well as the foole.
The like saying is in the Psalm 49. Wise men also dye and perish together aswell as the ignorant and foolish, and leave their riches for other. &c. This also is to be understanded of things that men do. The wise man dyeth for all his doings aswell as the fool. No man regardeth what they well ordained. And when thou hast done aswell ⟨image 46⟩as is possible, for thy reward, are all thy doings disdained, or else thou art hanished or put to death &c. Yea many will contemn thine Acts and repeal them.
