Cease not to learn until thou cease to live; Think that day lost wherein thou draw'st no letter, To make thyself learneder, wiser, better. [Fr., Jusqu'au cercuil (mon fils) vueilles apprendre, Et tien perdu le jour qui s'est passe, Si tu n'y as quelque chose ammasse, Pour plus scavant et plus sage te rendre.]


Guy de Faur, Lord of Pibrac
