Epigr. 18. Ad Comitem Essexiæ, de expeditione in Hispaniam.
Being in armes, how did'st thou furiously,With fire and sword thy trembled hand display
Which did'st become after the victory.
Sweete to the captiues, gentle to the pray?
Teach Spaine, Deurox, as thou hast well begunn
Not to dare fight, but dare to b'ouercome.
