Epigram 12. Natures counterfeite.
When Adam was in Paradise first plac'd,An dwth the rule of mortal things was grac'd,
Then roses, pinkes and fragrant gilliflowres,
Adornd & deckd forth Edens blessed bowres:
But now each Gill weares flowres, each Punk hath pinks,
And roses garnish Gallants shooes, me thinks:
When rugged Winter, robs fairy Floraes treasure,
Puncks can haue pinks and roses at their pleasure.
