Epig. II. Ad Tisiphonem.

Nights second birth by th' Acherontike Lake,
Who from the scourge of sin thy name dost take,
Vp, for thou hast not on Cocytus strand,
More cause to shake thy euer burning brand
Against the gyant brood of sin, then here,
Obserue them well, Ile cause them to appeare;
But scourge them so that this report may passe,
Tisiphone no partiall Furie was.
