Book I, 54: On Fuca
From Divine Fancies (1633), Book I
Religion
Fvca thou quo't the Scriptures on thy side,
And maks Rebeca patronize hy pride;
Thou say'st that she wore Ear-rings: Did she so?
Know this withall, She bore the Pitcher too:
Thou may'st, like hr, were Ear-rings, if thy pride
Can stoope to what, Rebecca did beside.
