In noi dal sennoA

Valour and mind form real nobilityB
The which bears fruit and shows a fair increaseC
By doughty actions these and nought but theseD
Confer true patents of gentilityB
Money is false and light unless it beB
Bought by a man's own worthy qualitiesD
And blood is such that its corrupt diseaseD
And ignorant pretence are foul to seeB
Honours that ought to yield more true a typeE
Europe thou measurest by fortune stillF
To thy great hurt and this thy foe perceivesG
He rates the tree by fruits mature and ripeE
Not by mere shadows roots and verdant leavesG
Why then neglect so grave a cause of illF

Michelangelo Di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni
