Of Poggius his poore successe in Palmistry and wooing

Epigram. 195.

Poggius (whose skill in Palmistrie is poore)
Tooke vp his Mistris hand, therein to pry;

Then said (and therewithall he sighed sore)
Sweet, all my fortunes in your hand doth lye:
Then safe Ile keep them for, and from you too,
Quoth, she againe; so, he for nought doth woo.
