Epigr. 27. In Cophum.
Cophus doth liue as if he could bestowe,Life on his friende, and life vpon his foe.
As if he had a life to sport and play.
As if he had a life to cast away.
As if he had change of liues, and life did sound,
Not as one farthing of his thousand pound.
As if his landes were wondrous large and great.
And life but one small dust to that huge heape.
Yet life is all his goold, and all his land.
Himselfe and all, if he did vnderstand.
