58 Of going to Bathe.
A common phrase long vsed here hath beene,And by prescription now some credit hath:
That diuers Ladies comming to the Bathe,
Come chiefely but to see, and to be seene.
But if I should declare my conscience briefely,
I cannot thinke that is their Arrant chiefely.
For as I heare that most of them haue dealt,
They chiefely came to feele, and to be felt.
