Epigram 38 (No enemie of Scillas can accuse him,)
From Chrestoleros (1598), Book 5
Social Commentaries
No enemie of Scillas can accuse him,
Of any wrong or villanie pretended.
Of any prouocation or abusing,
Or the least cause why they should be offended.
Yet Scilla hath a fault to make amendes.
He will abuse none but his deerest friends.
