M.
Epigram. [Moone]
Though these are but halfe Moones, yet to all suchThey are full Moones, that dare to drinke too much:
The Moone is ever changing day and night,
And hee's a Man that stands i'th Moone upright.
42
Epigram. [Mouth]
These Mouthes do (like two Monsters) live on Men,They swallow them, and put them out agen:
They gape, yet bite not; if they bite, I'm sure
They rankle not, my selfe have try'd the cure.
Epigram. [Martin]
If it be true, some ancient Writers spoke,That Martin to a Begger gave his Cloake;
Those that have Cloakes, let them this Tavern find,
And there they and their Cloakes may well be lin'd.
43
Epigram. [Mermayd]
This Mayd is strange (in shape) to Man's appearing,Shee's neither Fish, or Flesh, nor good Red-hearing:
What is shee then? a Signe to represent
Fish, Flesh, good Wine, with welcome and content.
44
Epigram. [Miter]
These Miters have no Privilege from Rome,Nor are all Catholikes that to them come:
No man's Religion here is call'd in question,
Here's Wine to glad the mind, and breed disgestion.
Epigram. [Maydenhead]
Virginity's a Vertue, much renown'd,A Maydenhead once lost, can nere be found:
But yet these Maydenheads (with little cost)
May be both lost and found, and found and lost.
