Epig. 6 In Brillum.
Two Contraries more glorious farre appeare,When each to other they be placed neare:
Vntil I knew this axiom I did muse,
Why Gentleman so much do Bases vse:
Yet Brillus Bases addes to Brill no grace,
But make him baser, who by birth is base:
Gentilitie then Brillus first should get,
Before base Brillus do in Bases iet.
