All things have their time.
All thinges haue their tyme.
That is, their appointed hour and season, which if man pass and go beyond, and will bring all things about after his own ways and devises, he shall reap nought but vanity thereof. Many men labour to wax rich, but they prevail not. Other are enriched, yea without any labour. Because God hath appointed that hour, for the one, and not for the other.
