Against saplesse Sottus his vnkind heate.

Epigram. 238.

A thousand pound a yeare, yet haire, nor heire,
Hath Sottus; but still weares, a Coife, or Cap:
If Man b'a Tree (turn'd vpward) and his Haire,
Be as the Rootes; then Sottus hath no Sap
In Winter: no; for Virgoes heate before
Hath dride him, with a Pox, and will do more.
