010.00G.0HE %XE%9legie%0. IV.
010.00G.001 O%+Nce, and but once found in thy company,
010.00G.002 All thy supposed scapes are laid on me;
010.00G.003 And as a thief at bar, is question'd there
010.00G.004 By all the men that have been rob'd that year,
010.00G.005 So am I, (by this traiterous meanes surpriz'd)
010.00G.006 By thy Hydroptique father catechiz'd.
010.00G.007 Though he had wont to search with glazed eyes 
010.00G.008 As though he came to kill a Cockatrice,
010.00G.009 Though he hath oft sworn, that he would remove
010.00G.010 Thy beauties beauty, and food of our love,
010.00G.011 Hope of his goods, if I with thee were seen,
010.00G.012 Yet close and secret, as our souls, we' have been.
010.00G.013 Though thy immortal mother, which doth lie
010.00G.014 Still buried in her bed, yet will not die,
010.00G.015 Takes this advantage to sleep out day light,
010.00G.016 And watch thy entries, and returnes all night,
010.00G.017 And, when she takes thy hand, and would seem kind,
010.00G.018 Doth search what rings, and armlets she can find,
010.00G.019 And kissing notes the color of thy face,
010.00G.020 And fearing lest thou art swoln, doth thee imbrace,
010.00G.021 And to try if thou long, doth name strange meats,
010.00G.022 And notes thy paleness, blushes, sighs, and sweats; [CW:And]
010.00G.023 And politiquely will to thee confess [p.70]
010.00G.024 The sins of her own youths rank lustiness;
010.00G.025 Yet love these sorceries did remove, and move
010.00G.026 Thee to gull thine own mother for my love.
010.00G.027 Thy little brethren, which like Fairy Sprights
010.00G.028 Oft skipt into our chamber, those sweet nights,
010.00G.029 And kist, and dandled on thy fathers knee,
010.00G.030 Were brib'd next day; to tell what they did see:
010.00G.031 The grim- eight- foot- high- iron- bound serving- man 
010.00G.032 That oft names God in oathes, and only than,
010.00G.033 He that to bar the first gate doth as wide
010.00G.034 As the great Rhodian Colossus stride,
010.00G.035 Which, if in hell no other paines there were,
010.00G.036 Makes me fear hell, because he must be there:
010.00G.037 Though by thy father he were hir'd to this,
010.00G.038 Could never witness any touch or kiss.
010.00G.039 But Oh, too common ill, I brought with me
010.00G.040 That, which betray'd me to mine enemy:
010.00G.041 A loud perfume, which at my entrance cryed
010.00G.042 Even at thy fathers nose, so were we spied.
010.00G.043 When, like a Tyrant King, that in his bed
010.00G.044 Smells gunpowder, the pale wretch shivered;
010.00G.045 Had it been some bad smel, he would have thought
010.00G.046 That his own feet or breath, the smell had wrought.
010.00G.047 But as we in our Ile imprisoned,
010.00G.048 Where cattle onely, and divers dogs are bred,
010.00G.049 The precious Unicorns, strange monsters, call,
010.00G.050 So thought he sweet strange, that had none at all.
010.00G.051 I taught my silks their whistling to forbear,
010.00G.052 Even my opprest shooes, dumb and speechless were,
010.00G.053 Onely, thou bitter-sweet, whom I had laid
010.00G.054 Next me, me traiterously hast betraid,
010.00G.055 And unsuspected hast invisibly
010.00G.056 At once fled unto him, and staid with me. [CW:Base]
010.00G.057 Base excrement of earth, which dost confound [p.71]
010.00G.058 Sense from distinguishing the sick from sound;
010.00G.059 By thee the seely Amorous sucks his death
010.00G.060 By drawing in a leprous harlots breath,
010.00G.061 By thee the greatest stain to mans estate
010.00G.062 Falls on us, to be call'd effeminate;
010.00G.063 Though you be much lov'd in the Princes hall,
010.00G.064 There things that seem, exceed substantial.
010.00G.065 Gods when ye fum'd on altars, were pleas'd well,
010.00G.066 Because you'er burnt, not that they lik'd your smel,
010.00G.067 You are loathsome all, being taken simply alone,
010.00G.068 Shall we love ill things joyn'd, and hate each one?
010.00G.069 If you were good, your good doth soon decay;
010.00G.070 And you are rare, that takes the good away.
010.00G.071 All my perfumes, I give most willingly
010.00G.072 To embalm thy fathers coorse; What will he dy?
