 | The Scourge of Folly |  |
Epig. 92. Against the great Swearer Mezentius.
Mezentius speakes no vvorde, but God he mindes;If not vvhole God, yet (at the least) some part:
Nay, all his seuerall parts of sundry kindes,
Bloud, Wounds, Death, Soule, Nayles, Flesh, Sides, Guts and Heart.
And though by him these parts be still exprest,
Yet is he but a most Blaspheamous Beast.
