Her malignant tricks and qualities.
First, she hath never a good condition: for find a whore without bad qualities, and a monkey without mad tricks, and you may hang them both together.
She is most certainly a great malignant, & cares not how the Cause goes forward, so she may sit on her taile end crack-nuts.
She is unconstant, and will leap from place to place, as the Brownist doth from point to point in his Sermons, and it may be supposed that she learnt her giddy actions from her halfe cousins, which are Baboons.
