Epigram 36: A Wordmonger
From The Nipping and Snipping of Abuses (1614)
Social Commentaries
Mans Vnderstanding's so obnubilate,
That when thereon I doe excogitate,
Intrinsicall and querimonious paines,
Doth puluerise the concaue of my braines,
That I could wish man were vnfabricate,
His faults he doth so much exaggerate.
