To Lupa
From Clarastella (1650), Epigrams, Lib. 1
Social Commentaries
Thy daughter-Whore, begets a Bawd her mother,
As Ice and water each engender other:
Though thy age freize with her salt mixt like snow
Before her lustfull fires, it thaweth too
By the same heat inflam'd: when she grows ice
So you can warme her bloud with Bawdes advice.
