Epigr. 11. In Thymum.

Among abuses which you speake vnto,
And iustly discommend (I know you doe.)
(For vice is stronge, and which I wonder more,
By multiplying stronger then before)
The paynting of the face which you detest,
Is one, and not the least among the rest.
138

But you paint sermons to Gods wordes disgrace,
Thymus I would you did but paint your face.
