Lustfull.

That speaks not but from Aretine. Con'd all his Prints. Knows all the quirks within Loves labyrinth. A profest critick in lechery. Like Hercules whose lustfull sprite, Kept heat for fifty maids one night. Salamanders living in the fire of lust. That will make her grave a brothell, And tempt the worms to adulterate her carcasse. A common tinder box, a goat, a floating goatish eye▪ Incubus, Succubns, Stallion. I do not think, but were the pox a woman, He would not stick to court it. As if he h••d washed in Salmasis. Whose blood like kids upon a plain, Doth skip and dance Levalto'•• in each vein. Whose breasts are swoln with the Venerian game,

••d warm themselves at lusts alluring flame, ••o da••e to ask as much as men can think, ••d wallowing lie within a sensuall sink, •• read no books, but obscene Aretine, ••o the loose laws of their wild blood obey, ••enst with savage heat. ••e to lxions shaggie footed race, ••hen as the gaudy Nymphs pursue the chace, He That makes a flying vow to every she. ••full as Tarquin or base Messaline. ••s the debosht Catamite. A goat is cooler. ••cking damnation from a strumpets lips. That ••at nothing but Potato's, Eringo's and Cantharides, ••earying the night with wanton dalliance, ••ore prime than goats or Monkies in their pride, Whose eye ••rries with••••'•• piercing adultery. There is not chastity in any language without offence for to expresse his lust. His soul is the Bawd to his body. He is more violence to a modest ear than to her ••e deflowred. Keeping a S••ew in his heart. Nothing is harder to his perswasion than a chast man, and ••e makes a scoffing miracle of a maid. The Pox onely converts them, and that onely when it kills them. With Fancy unconfin••d, And lawlesse as the Sea or wind.
