A Lame Beggar I am unable, yonder beggar cries, To stand, or move; if he say true, he lies. Hero and Leander Both robb'd of air, we both lie in one ground; Both whom one fire had burnt, one water drown'd. Antiquary If in his study he hath so much care To hang all old strange things, let his wife beware

Epigrams by John Donne

Hero and Leander Both robb'd of air, we both lie in one ground; Both whom one fire had burnt, one water drown'd.
