77. To a Bad-minded, Cholericke, vngratefull man.
Thou soone forget'st those wrongs thou dost to Men:All small wrongs done to thee thou dost remember;
Euery good turne thou dost, thou count'st it ten:
For good done to thee, thy record is slender.
Kindnes from thee, like vomits make thee sweate;
Thou swallow'st others kindnes as thy meate.
