 | The most elegant and witty epigrams of Sir Iohn Harrington |  |
6 To Sextus, an ill Reader.
That Epigram that last you did rehearse,Was sharpe, and in the making, neat and tearse,
But thou doost read so harsh, point so peruerse,
It seemed now neither witty nor verse.
For shame poynt better, and pronounce it cleerer,
Or be no Reader, Sextus, be a Hearer.
