Epigr. 38. Ad Georgium Morton, armig. de Truta a se capta.

Morton how foolish was this silly trowte,
Which quickly sawe, and pertly plaide about
The little flye, of bignesse of a pinn.
155

But ouersawe the fisher and his ginn.
So men doe oft which greedy are of gaine.
Eyde to their profit, but blinde to their paine.
