Epig. 114. Of the staid furious Poet Fucus.
Fvcus , the furious Poet vvrites but Plaies;So, playing, vvrites: that's, idly writeth all:
Yet, idle Plates, and Players are his Staies;
Which stay him that he can no lovver fall:
For, he is fall'n into the deep'st decay,
Where Playes and Players keepe him at a stay.
