iEpigrams.490. Crispati crines plumes, dant calcar amori.Why is young Annas thus with feathers dight ?And on his shoulder wears a dangling lock ?The one fortels hee'l sooner fly than fight,The other shows hee's wrapt in's mothers smock.But wherefore wears he such a jingling spur?O know, he deals with Jades that will not stir.491. On Boung-Bob.Bob, thou, nor souldier, theef, nor fencer art,Yet by thy weapon liv'st, th'ast one good part.492. On Glaucus.Glaucus a man, a womans hair doth wear,And yet he wears the same comb'd out behind :So men the wallet of their faults do bear,For if before him, he that fault should find :I think foul shame would his fair face invade,To see a man so like a woman made.493. On Crab.Crab faces gowns with sundry Furres ;'tis known,He keeps the Fox-furre for to face his own.494. Dolor intimus.Nor Hauk, nor Hound, nor Horse, those letters //////,But ach its self, 'tis Brutus bones attaches.
