Epig. XXIX. In Curuum detractatorem.

Cvruus thou saist, that I doe cur-like looke,
That fawnes on men, when I doe giue a booke,
But Curuus asse-like thou, hast not the wit
To vnderstand, much lesse to censure it,
Else thou woul'st know, each booke I giue's a bone
For such curst curres, as thee to gnaw vpon,
