[If the Adult'rer, Lucrece did thee please]

[_]

In Eandem.

If the Adult'rer, Lucrece did thee please,
By Death deserv'd thou seeks unworthy praise:

But rather if he forc't thee 'gainst thy will,
For thy Foes fault, thou (mad) thy blood didst spill.
In vaine then Lucrece thou seeks praise, at all:
For, madly thou, or wickedly, didst fall.
