Remember Lots Wife.

Exempla plus valent, quam præcepta.

A woman turn'd to salt, most true it is;
Ovid nere knew that Metamorphosis.
The woman chang'd, not man, Gods prime creature,
For women are most apt to change by nature.
She looked back with a most strong desire,
To see old Sodom, which was then on fire.
The act of looking back had bin no crime,
Had she lookt back but at another time.
It was Gods precept, made this act a sin,
She had been free, had God not injur'd bin,
Salt seasoneth flesh; she's turn'd to salt, that we
By her example might well season'd be.
Go on (my soul) to God with all thy might,
Renounce thy former Sodom of delight.
