Thomas Urquhart


Epigrams. The Second Booke. ¹ 13. What the subject of your conference ought to be with men of judgment, and account


LEt the discourse be serious, you impart,
To the grave audience of judicious eares:
Being either of the common-wealth, some art,
Or science, on your owne, or friendes affaires;
For if it can to none of those pertaine:
It must be idle, frivolous, and vaine.
