Against Doctour Tangus his swelling Physicke.

Tangus , the Physick Doctour loves a whore
Better then giving Physick to the poore.
He hath the art of baudry better farre
Than Physick, yet in both, doth make and marre;
He makes a maid a whore, so marres her quite,
And makes a sound man sick, or dead out-right.
What Virgin can resist, when he doth boast,
He can restore her Maiden-head, if lost;
Which at her marryage shall be found as strict,
As any girles that love did nere afflict.
When he doth promise by a Physick feat,
To let the wombe and paps from growing great:
To give her unguents and complections store,
To make her Beauties rare reflexions more,
To keep her body still in healthfull state,
And make her merry in despight of fate.
Which having will to promise, skill to do,
What wench can chuse but love and please him too?
Tangus your Art, your nature truly hits,
That helps or hinders loves still burning fits;

34

But take heed (Tangus) how you empty still,
The wombes which you with working Physick fill,
Least some repentant wench which us'd you have,
Say at her end you us'd her like a knave;
Then let me thee admonish (without stripes)
Give no more Physick with such Glister-pipes.
