Fœmina Quid non?

What dares Gallantus for his Wench not doe?
Though it concerne the hazard of his necke:
Aske what shee will, or haue a minde vnto,
He streight procures, and brings her at a becke.
Bid him goe rob a Gold-smiths shoppe for Plate,
Stabbe him that calls her by the name of Puncke;
Beate Constables, or Watch for walking late,
Vndoe a Bawde, or make a Pander druncke:
In briefe what is't, that may to pleasure wooe,
But braue Gallantus for his wench durst doo.
