    About this ebook

    Poeta de Tristibus; Or, The Poet's Complaint is a lengthy satirical poem by an unknoiwn author. Excerpt: "I hardly a poor Lawyer know, Unless some who are Poets too. They thrive by Rapine and Revenge, And making Enemies of Friends: Feeding on others hopes and fears, On Orphants groans, and Widows tears. In short, the World it self; and all We Trade, and Art, and Science call, Are grand Impostures; false and vain, Invented but to bring in gain."
