proclivius
est injuriae
quam beneficio vicem exsolvere; quia gratia oneri, ultio in quaestu
habetur.

Robert Herrick
Dr.
Grosart suggests that he may
have been one of Herrick's parishioners, and the name sounds as of the
west country.
920. _Cunctation in correction. _ Is Herrick translating? According to a
relief at Rome the lictors' rods were bound together not only by a red
thong twisted from top to bottom, but by six straps as well.
922. _Continual reaping makes a land wax old. _ Ovid, _Ars Am. _ iii. 82:
Continua messe senescit ager.
923. _Revenge. _ Tacitus, _Hist. _ iv.
3: Tanto proclivius est injuriae
quam beneficio vicem exsolvere; quia gratia oneri, ultio in quaestu
habetur.
927. _Praise they that will times past. _ Ovid, _Ars Am. _ iii. 121:--
Prisca juvent alios: ego me nunc denique natum
Gratulor; haec aetas moribus apta meis.
928. _Clothes are conspirators. _ I can suggest no better explanation of
this oracular epigram than that the tailor's bill is an enemy of a
slender purse.
929. _Cruelty_. Seneca _de Clem. _ i. 24: Ferina ista rabies est,
sanguine gaudere et vulneribus; (i. 8), Quemadmodum praecisae arbores
plurimis ramis repullulant [H. uses repullulate, -tion, 336, 794], et
multa satorum genera, ut densiora surgant, reciduntur; ita regia
crudelitas auget inimicorum numerum tollendo.
