Epigr. 22. In Lanionem medicum.
Phisition Lanio neuer will forsake,His golden patiente while his head doth ake:
When he is dead farewell, he comes not there.
He hath nor cause, nor courage to appeare.
He will not looke vpon the face of death,
Nor bring the dead vnto her mother earth.
I will not say, but if he did the deede,
He must be absent, lesse the corpse should bleed.
