Epigr. 41. in Sabellum.

Biting Sabellus hereat takes offence,
Because I lay not open all my sense.
All must be plaine, and nothing I must hide,
There must be notes at ende, and notes by side.
There must be nothing fett, and nothing strayned,
The reader must delighted be, not payned,
But I am of an other minde, for why
Should not he take some paines a well as I?
