Et cum fortuna státque caditque fides [68]
Ovid.
Et cum fortuna státque caditque fides.
Cicero.
Non solum ipsa fortuna cæca est: sed etiam plerumque cæ-
cos efficit quos complexa est: adeo ut spernant amores ve-
teres, ac indulgeant novis.

Fortuyn verblindt.
Somtijdts zal de fortuyn de Liefde wel verblinden
En stellen wanckelbaer op eenen ronden kloot:
Het minnen wel verkout, 't zy door gheluck of noodt,
Maer in oprechte Liefd' fortuyn gheen plaets zal vinden.

Fortune aveugle l'Amour.
La fortune a l'Amour quelquefois les yeux bande,
Et mobile le met sur son globe tout rond;
Car au chaud d'un malheur l'Amour leger se fond,
Mais en l'Amour loyal, deffaut sa force grande.
Et mobile le met sur son globe tout rond;
