That which I have seen, i.e. learned by study and experience. Good and comely; good or comfortable to man's self, and comely or amiable in the eyes of other men, as penuriousness is base and dishonourable. His portion, to wit, of worldly goods; for he hath another and a better portion in heaven. This liberty is given to him by God, and this is the best advantage, as to this life, which he can make of them.
