Sight which is the sense of Example, is oftener employed in the government of our Passions, than Hearing, which is the sense of Precept. And therefore when the Poet would sit an advise for the person of Ascanius, he doth not bring any tedious, thorny, moral discourse; but he works upon that affection which is most predominant in ingenuous and noble Natures.
