O Spes Fallaces!

Here is today's distich by John Owen, with an English translation by Thomas Harvey, 3.32. Owen dedicates this distich to his brother, Thomas Owen: Ad Fratrem Suum Thomam Owen.

O Spes Fallaces!
O res fallaces potius; spes vero fideles,
Quae vel ad extremum nos comitantur iter.

O GUILEFUL HOPES!
O rather guileful things; our Hope’s a friend
Most faithful, us concomitates to th’ end.
