520			_a"The Complete Poems of Sir John Davies, Volume 2 of 2" by Sir John Davies is a collection of poetry likely written in the late 16th to early 17th century. This volume compiles various forms of verse, including epigrams and sonnets, rich in wit and social commentary. The poems often explore themes of love, human folly, and societal norms, presented through sharp satire and clever wordplay. At the start of the collection, the reader is introduced to the vibrant style characteristic of Davies' work, featuring a series of epigrams that define various types of "gulls" — a term Davies uses to comment on people who are foolish or easily deceived. Each poem deftly critiques different aspects of society through humorous character sketches. The opening examples provide a playful yet incisive examination of human behaviour, revealing the poet's keen observations on vanity, ambition, and moral shortcomings, all while engaging the reader with his clever use of language and form.
