BY shininge lighte, of wannishe CYNTHIAS raies,
The dogge behouldes his shaddowe to appeare:
Wherefore; in vaine aloude he barkes, and baies,
And alwaies thoughte, an other dogge was there:
But yet the Moone, who did not heare his queste,
Hir woonted course, did keepe vnto the weste.
This reprehendes, those fooles which baule, and barke,
At learned men, that shine aboue the reste:
With due regarde, that they their deedes should marke,
And reuerence them, that are with wisedome bleste:
But if they striue, in vaine their winde they spende,
For woorthie men, the Lorde doth still defende.
Esse quid hoc dicam, viuis quod fama negatur,
Et sua quod rarus tempora lector amat?
Hi sunt inuidiae nimirum Regule mores;
Praeferat antiquos semper vt illa nouis.
Ouid. 1. Remed.
Ingenium liuor magni,
detrectat Homeri;
Quisquis es, ex illo
Zoile nomen habes.
Martial. lib. 5.
ad Regulum.
