Victrix Patientia Duri

Here is today's emblem and distich by Gabriel Rollenhagen, Book 1.28, with an English rendering by George Wither. Here are the opening lines of Wither's own poem:

Some Trees, when Men oppresse their Aged Heads,
(With waighty Stones) they fructifie the more;
And, when upon some Herbs, the Gard'ner treads,
They thrive and prosper, better then before.

Although the "oppressed" tree in Rollenhagen's emblem does not look like a palm, the poem implies the "palm of victory" - just be patient, don't worry about the oppressive obstacles, and you will be a winner.

Victrix Patientia Duri
Omne malum superat victrix patientia duri
Ut nec ab imposito pondere palma perit.

No Inward Griefe, nor outward Smart,
Can overcome a Patient-Heart.
