Epigr. 6. Ad Thomam Strangwayes de Martialis Epigrammate, Aurum & opes & rura, &c.
Goold, wealth, and gleab, how many friends will yeeld?But few in witt will giue place to their friend.
Why Martiall? many haue goold wealth & gleab
But few haue witt, if so our strife hath ende.
And sooth se sayes Strangwaies, but yet I would,
That I for want of witt might say heers goold.
