A Sonet of Doctor Francisco de Campusana.

WHat Fish to th' bared hooke will come And there loose liberty, and life? But bayted, all throng to their doome: Easing the angler of his strife.
If profit be with sweetnesse mixt, It must be well receiv'd of all: The pleasure that unto its fixt, More then the gaine doth mē inthral.
Good counsell, as Nizander saith, Doth seise on us, like the bare hooke: But Lucas so it bayted hath, He catcheth all men by the Booke.
