English text
A fained friend by proofe I finde
to be a greater foe,
Then he that with a spightful minde,
doth seeke my overthrow.
For of the one I can beware,
With craft the other breedes my care.
Such men are like the hidden Rocks,
which in the Seas doe lie:
Against the which each Ship that knocks,
is drowned sodainly.
No greater fraud, nor more unjust,
Then false deceit hid under trust.
