'persecutors, by I. D. With an Inquisition against paper-persecutors, 'by A. H. London, for H. H. 1625,' in quarto. But Wood had seen a detached edition of the former piece. He says, 'Quære, whether John 'Donne published A Scourge for Paper Persecutors, printed in quarto, 'tempore Jacobi primi. The running title at the top of every page is 'PAPER'S COMPLAINT, in three sheets and a half. The date on the 'title pared out at the bottom1.' This must have been an older edition, than that in which it appears connected, from similarity of subject, with its companion, An Inquisition against paper-persecutors, in the year 1625, as I have just noticed.
Owen's idea of an epigram points out the nature which now prevailed of this kind of composition, and shews the propriety of blending the epigrams and satires of these times, under one class. A satire, he says, is an epigram on a larger scale. Epigrams are only satires in miniature. An epigram must be satirical, and a satire epigrammatical. And Jonson, in the Dedication of his EPIGRAMS to Lord Pembroke, was so far from viewing this species of verse, in its original plan, as the most harmless and inoffensive species of verse, that he supposes it to be conversant above the likenesse of vice and facts, and is conscious that epigrams carry danger in the sound. Yet in one of his epigrams, addressed TO THE MEERE ENGLISH CENSVRER, he professes not exactly to follow the track of the late and most celebrated epigrammatists.
To thee my way in EPIGRAMMES seemes newe,
When both it is the old way and the true.
Thou saist that cannot be: for thou hast seene
DAVIS, and WEEVER, and the BEST have BEENE,
And mine come nothing like, &c3.
This, however, discovers the opinion of the general reader.
1 ATH. OXON. i. 556. [See above, p. 81.] He thus ridicules the minute commemoration of unhistorical occurrences in the Chronicles of Hollinshead and Stowe. Signat, B. 3. Some chroniclers that write of kingdom's states,
Do so absurdly sableize my white
With maskes, and interludes, by day and night,
Bald may games, beare baytings, and poore orations,
Made to some prince, by some poore corporations.
And if a bricke-bat from a chimney falls,
When puffing Boreas nere so little bralls;
Or wanton rig, or leacher dissolute,
Doe stand at Paules-crosse in a sheeten sute:
All these, and thousand such like toyes as these,
They close in Chronicles like butterflies.
And so confound grave matters of estate
With plaies of poppets, and I know not what.
Ah good sir Thomas More, fame be with thee,
Thy hand did blesse the English historie !—
As also when the weathercock of Paules
Amended was, this chronicler enroules, etc.—
above quoted, thus recommends his own Epigrams. QUODLIBETS, B. Epigrams are like Satyrs, rough without,
Like chesnuts sweet; take thou the kernell out.

IOIO ABRUPT CONCLUSION OF THIS HISTORY OF ENGLISH POETRY.
Of the popularity of the epigram about the year 1600, if no specimens had remained, a proof may be drawn, together with evidences of the nature of the composition, from Marston's humourous character of Tuscus, a retailer of wit.
But roome for Tuscus, that iest-moungering youth,
Who neer did ope his apish gerning mouth,
But to retaile and broke another's wit.
Discourse of what you will, he straight can fit,
Your present talke, with, Sir, I'll tell a iest,—
Of some sweet ladie, or grand lord at least.
Then on he goes, and neer his tongue shall lie,
Till his ingrossed iests are all drawne dry:
But then as dumbe as Maurus, when at play,
Hath lost his crownes, and paun'd his trim array.
He doth nought but retaile iests: breake but one,
Out flies his table-booke, let him alone,
He'll haue it i' faith: Lad, hast an EPIGRAM,
Wil't haue it put into the chaps of Fame?
Giue Tuscus copies: sooth, as his own wit,
His proper issue, he will father it, &c1.
And the same author says, in his Postscript to PIGMALION,
Now by the whyppes of EPIGRAMMATISTS,
One of Harrington's Epigrams, is a comparison of the Sonnet and the Epigram.
Once by mishap two poets fell a squaring,
The Sonnet and our Epigram comparing.
And Faustus hauing long demur'd vpon it
Yet at the last gaue sentence for the Sonnet,
Now, for such censvre, this his chiefe defence is,
Their sugred tast best likes his likrous senses.
Well, though I grant sugar may please the tast,
Yet let my verse haue salt to make it last2.
In the RETURN FROM PARNASSUS, acted 1616, perhaps written some time before, Sir Roderick says, 'I hope at length England will 'be wise enough: then an old knight may haue his wench in a corner, 'without any SATIRES or EPIGRAMS3.' In Decker's VNTRUSSING OF THE HUMOROUS POET, Horace, that is Jonson, exclaims in a passion, 'Sirrah! I'll compose an EPIGRAM vpon him shall go thus
Haywood wrote Epigrams, and so did Davis,
Reader, thou doubtest utrum horum mavis.
In Dunbar's Latin Epigrams, published 1616, there is a compliment to Davies of Hereford, author of the SCOURGE OF FOLLY, as a Satyrist or epigrammatist. CENT. xx. p. 66. 1 SC. VILLAN. B. iii. 11.

'A gentleman, or honest citizen, shall not sit in your pennie-bench theatres with his squirrell by his side cracking 'nuttes, but he shall be SATYRED and EPIGRAMMED upon, etc.' H. 3. It shall not be the whipping o' th' satyre nor the whipping of the blind beare, etc.' 3. 'He says here,
