Ex otio Negotium | ||
Ad Vulcanum. Epig. 7.
As ruines renovate th'Assyrian nests,When twice five ages the sols bird hath spent:
So Rome her old decrepitness digests,
Dress'd in the visage of her president.
Now (Vulcan,) I beseech forget and spare
Our greife, w'are Mars and Venus progenie:
So thy loose wife shall passe the Lemnian snare,
And in chast love affect thee patiently.
