Epigram. 95. In Ægyptum suspensum.
Charles th' Ægyptian, who by iugling could,Make fast or loose, or whatso'ere he would,
Striuing to loose, what struggling he made faster,
The hangman was more cunning of the twaine,
Who knit, what he could not vnknit againe.
You Country-men Ægyptians make such sots,
Seeming to loose indissoluble knots;
Had you beene there, and but to see the Cast,
You should haue won had you but laid: 'Tis fast.
