Against Gargilianus.
Wilt haue me call thee bountifull,when giftes thou doest bestowe
On widowes old, and senior chuffs,
[6]
Nothyng maie more dishonest bee,
then these thy subtile shifts:
How canst thou call Gargilian,
these guiles of thyne thy gifts?
So by the hooke the flotyng fishe,
is brought vnto his bane:
So by the subtile secret baite,
the selie beast is tane.
What tis to giue and to bestowe,
I will declare to thee,
If thou alreadie doest not knowe:
Gargilian giue to me.
