Not last, nor least, but neere thy praises end,This worthy man thy worthlesse works commend:
No scuruy idle name he will thee call,
And therefore he will call thee none, but all.
If I on euery Epithete should write,
Thy friends bestow on thee, thou wandring wight,
No Reader then durst on my writings looke,
They would so far out-swell thy boystrous booke.
But shortest writ, the greatest wit affoords,
And greatest wit, consists in fewest words.
