Epigram 111. Of high-spirited women
From A Chain of Golden Poems (1658)
Relationships
Histories of all ages do declare
High-spirited women noble things have done:
One shall serve mention'd in particular,
And she the brave Ioeni an Amazon.
Bonduca long the Romans force withstood,
And seal'd her love t'her Countrey with her blood.
