XXXVIII. On Math. Flaccus Myricus.
Thy brethren tearme thee, Flaccus, a profaneFoe to all truth; as impudent as Cain,
A Dunghill-cock, a Snake, a Dogge, a Scurre,
A loathsome Cancer, Fury, Epicure,
Vngratefull cuckow, periur'd, wicked, base,
Impugner of the vertuous, doltish Asse,
Foule grunting sowe, who with her filthy nose,
Furrow's all grounds, where any goodnes grow's:
Vaine Thraso, faithlesse Sinon, impudent
Thersites, Harpax, hayre-brain'd Sycophant
Blaster of freindship, kindler of debate,
Sower of discords, enuy, iarres, and hate;
A full-blowne bagpipe, which when any tryes
To presse, or squeeze it, squeaketh nought but lyes;
The Diuel's liuely organ, and his sonne,
Deseruing, as Christ's enemy, a throne
In Hell's damn'd court. If in this manner those
Who are thy Brethren, speake, what say thy foes?
