Social Commentaries
Of Galla's gallantry
From The Most Elegant and Witty Epigrams (1618), Book 4
Social Commentaries
WHat is the cause our Galla is so gallant,
Like ship in fairest wind, top and top gallant
Hath she of late been courted by some Gallant?
No sure: How then? Galla hath quaft a gallon.
