Your eyes are so sharpe that you cannot onely looke through a Milstone, but cleane through the minde.

P. 289.John Lyly
Was never eie did see that face,
Was never eare did heare that tong,
Was never minde did minde his grace,
That ever thought the travell long;
But eies and eares and ev'ry thought
Were with his sweete perfections caught.Mathew Roydon
Of all the kindes of common countrey life,
Methinkes a shepheards life is most content;
His state is quiet peace, devoyd of strife;
His thoughts are pure from all impure intent,
His pleasures rate sits at an easie rent;
He beares no mallice in his harmles hart,
Malicious meaning hath in him no part.
He is not troubled with th' afflicted minde,
His cares are onely over silly sheepe;
He is not unto jealozie inclinde,
(Thrice happie man) he knowes not how to weepe;
Whilst I the treble in deepe sorrowes keepe.
I cannot keepe the meane; for why (alas)
Griefes have no meane, though I for meane doe passe.Richard Barnfield
Looke or ye leape.
John Heywood
Our own tung shold be written cleane and pure, vnmixt and vnmangled with borrowing of other tunges.

When Brasse and Marble fade, shall make thee looke
