Against the gallant Glossus his mis-measuring.

Epigram. 342.

Glossus is gallant, yet doth measure keepe;
He eats and drinkes in measure; so doth sleep:
He measures Lands in trauell; so doth Seas:
In Measure he doth dance, toyles, takes his ease:
Yet (Robin-Hood) metes, somethings might be left
He metes Maid marions by the Bow, and Shaft.
