Epigram 88. Of high-spirited women

Neither do husbands heed, nor Heaven above
(For the most part) high-spirited women love
Are they in errour? through their ignorance,
And self-opinion they prove seldom Saints.
And husbands who are tide unto such wives,
Usually live with them unquiet lives.
To wed meek women men are most inclin'd,
And Heaven it self affects the humble mind.
