 | The Scourge of Folly |  |
Epig. 59. Against Afraniaes impudency.
Afrania can not blush: for, blushing comesFrom shame of our ovvne faults, vvhich vve conceiue:
Hovv should she blush, vvhen Impudence benums
Her sence of shame vvhere vvith she should perceiue?
Then is shee shamelesse? yea, the very same:
Yet the lesse shame she hath, the more's her shame.
