Epigram. 45. Bis duo notaui quæ non possunt reuocari, Virginitas, Tempus, Verbum dictumque, Voluptas.
Scaurus his life voluptuously hath led;Ruffinus tongue hath walk't immodestly;
Lusilla she hath lost her maiden-head;
And Thuscus spent his time in vanity:
But now the Blacke Oxe treadeth on their feet,
They find their faults, and 'gin to feare their fate,
And would be wise when now it is too late:
For who can call back Words already spoken,
Lost time, past Pleasure, Virgin-bands once broken?
