Man proposes, and God disposes.
— Ludovico Ariosto
We soon believe the things we would believe.
Nature made him, and then broke the mold.
When the devil grows old he turns hermit.
They think they have God Almighty by the toe.
From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.
Who seems most hideous when adorned the most.
Such fire was not by water to be drowned, nor he his nature changed by changing ground.
