Epigram. 70. In Æmiliam.

Æmilia tooke her husband in a trippe,
Aduenturing his ware in a strange shippe;
Poore soule, she could no lesse, she chaft, and chid him;
But for she did no more, there she vndid him:
For now hee's sawcie, and there's little oddes,
Betwixt him and that Pagan-king of gods:
And cares no more then Ioue when Iuno spide him,
For now he knowes the worst, she will but chide him.
