But in ourselves, that we are underlings.

The good is oft interrèd with their bones.

So mixed in him that nature might stand up
And say to all the world “This was a man.”

Lowliness is young ambition’s ladder,
Whereto the climber-upward turns his face;
But, when he once attains the upmost round,
He then unto the ladder turns his back,
Looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees
By which he did ascend.
