Epigr. 12. De Moro & Caro patrono.
Morus presented to a fat benifice.Condition'd with Carus but for the tenth fleece
Post twentie yeeres seruice his patron did grutch,
And said that the tenth of the tenth was to much.
A quartell was picked, and sett was the day,
To sende insufficient Morus awaie:
When he was remoued and quite dispossest.
He shut vp the matter with this bitter iest.
Bala-ming his patron which did him this wrong,
Am not I thine asse which haue seru'd thee thus long
