Thomas Urquhart (Томас Эркарт)

Epigrams. The Third Booke. № 31. A temperate Dyet, is the best Physicke

To keepe a moderation in our Dyet, 
	Is the chiefe meane, to be of health assured; 
For nothing sickens so, as too much ryot: 
	And Feasts kill more, then Galen ever cured, 
Nor is the Physicke, should so fully please us; 
Others expell: but this prveens Diseases.

Эпиграммы. Книга III. № 31. Умеренное Питание – лучшее Лекарство

Умереннее будь в приёме Пищи.
	Лечить Обжор – не хватит Докторов,
И если хочешь быть здоров, дружище,
	Поменьше ешь, и будешь ты здоров.
На Пищу наложив ограниченье,
Ты этим сэкономишь на Леченье.
