VIRGIDEMIAE: BOOK 3: THE CONCLUSION OF ALL, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Thus have I writ in smoother cedar tree
Last Line: And meet my far-fetch'd stripes with waiting sides.
Subject(s): Writing & Writers


Thus haue I writ in smother Cedar tree,
So gentle Satyrs, pend so easily.
Henceforth I write in crabbed oke-tree rinde:
Search they that meane the secret meaning finde.
Hold out ye guiltie, and ye galled hides,
And meet my far-fetch'd stripes with waiting sides.
