Emblems and Epigrames is a book written by Francis Thynne, which was originally published in 1600. The book is a collection of poems, epigrams, and emblems, which are accompanied by illustrations. The poems cover a wide range of topics, including love, politics, and religion. The epigrams are witty and often satirical, while the emblems are symbolic representations of various concepts and ideas. The book is written in a style that was popular during the Renaissance, and it reflects the intellectual and cultural interests of the time. Thynne was a scholar and courtier, and his work reflects his knowledge of classical literature and his familiarity with the courtly culture of Elizabethan England. Emblems and Epigrames is an important work of literature from this period, and it continues to be studied and appreciated by scholars and readers today.1876. The volume contains the wife-worried Thynne's opinions on wives-who're always necessary evils, the best is bad; who're good when they die of old age, better when they die after some time during your life, and best when they die at once-his lines on some of his friends and those of his patron Sir Thomas Egerton; and other topics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
